Thanks, Colin, for your comment. You are quite right. Looking at photos of the members of UF from different parts of the world gives us an idea of the kind of climate and ecology of that place. In this part of the world, Iran, however, aboundance and diversity of climates is evident. Looking at some of my photos you can get the idea about the ecology of area that surrounds Tehran, the capital city. Having lived in the pacific South west for some time, I'm also familiar with diversity of ecology there. Keep up the keen eye and good luck. Khodahafez (May God Protect You). Farsheed
An interesting shot of this stark, harsh and barren area. The trees and foliage give hope. A good rock and vegetation contrast. Your image conveys to us, in the verdant west, an idea of the ecology of your land. Odofez
