Iran - Magic Late Afternoon Light at Persepolis
Persepolis - its ancient name was Parsa to ancient Persians, its modern name is Takht-e Jamshid, (Persian: Throne of Jamshid), to Iranians it was the capital of the Achaemenid kings of Iran (Persia). Persepolis is located about 50 kms northeast of Shiraz in the province of Fars in southwestern Iran. It was set on fire by Alexander upon his defeat of Darius III. The Achaeminid Empire was large and important : it covered Iran, Irak, Turkey, Armenia, Macedonia (FYROM), a part of Syria,Israël and Egypt. In the North : Afghanistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan... 24 different nationalities.
It's a fascinating place, especially for photographers !
