Iran: 9 days in Tehran

In October 2003, I was fortunate to spend 9 days in Iran for a business trip, spending my time with a colleague originally from Iran, whose family and friends still live in Tehran.

NOTE: I combined business meetings with sightseeing (much of it from taxi windows on the way to and from meetings) and on my day off I visited Tehran Bazaar. Whilst these pictures represent a portion of Tehran's daily life, they are not necessarily representative of all aspects of Iranian life - there were plenty of new cars, people in suits, people listening to western music, and wealthy houses. It's just what *I* decided *I* wanted to photograph!

I dedicate this photo gallery to my many new friends, as thanks for their kindness and outstanding hospitality.

Please DO NOT download these images or use them without my express permission.
