Photographer's Note
Mourning walks on Ashura day.
Had gone for two days cycleseeing south of Shiraz, in kind of gigantic desert territory. Nice asphalt roads and some villages to stock up. In these ceremony days everyone gets a free meal, and that includes tourists, whether in downtown Isfahan or some desert village, you'll receive a meal..

What an interesting anecdote. One hears so much about the Iranian hospitality, yet the embassy in Australia has not responded to my query about traveling inside Iran without a guide and our tour organizer had been told that many sites on his itinerary are inexplicably closed. it seems that Iran will remain terra incognita for me.Amazing scene- so many people seemingly in the middle of nowhere. Wonderful morning light. Regards. Klaudio.
