Reflection Red

Park trail bridge reflection across Elm Creek

Our fellow City Daily Photo blogger 'A.', photographer and webmaster, is missing in Tehran!

He has done a remarkable job covering the protests in the streets of his city. His blog, Teheran 24, has been daily updated until it was blocked in Iran last wednesday. From then on he has used his page on Facebook to spread the word. His last message dates from saturday, 10h20 am...
Family and friends think the police took him and they have no news until now: http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-278349

  1. A bridge, a reflection and bold red. You know how to get me with this kind of synergy. I too have posted the link about A on my Facebook page and urging others to spread the word. Well done.

  3. Nice photo - a pleasing red on green.

    Let us hope Amir Sadeghi is found safe soon. And let us in the West make sure we do not give away the freedoms that people like Sadeghi have to campaign so bravely for.

  4. Nice photo - very serene. Why paint a bridge black or brown when you can paint it red!

  12. You get amazing color from your shots. Very cool.

    Sad about the your friend in Iran. The world seems to be getting crazier and crazier. I hope speculation is wrong and that he has just been "cut off" from the outside world.
