I went back to Iran too

Photo essay

by Cyrus Swire
25-Mar-2008
 
My name is Cyrus Swire and at the moment I live in Toronto, Canada. I would love to contribute with some photos from my latest trip to Iran. I know lots of people post there pictures from Iran here on this site, but trust me, mine are very strange and I am sure embarrassing to myself and my dear beloved family. (It's just funny!) I am tired of everyone smiling and looking in the camera and I am tired of taking pictures of the environment. (There is not much environment in Tehran today to take picture of!).

Cyrus, I am sick and tired of Iranian "Assa ghoort dadegan". Thank you very much for sharing your moments of silly fun with everybody.

(I should take a trip to Sweden to see how it is. I live in Canada quite happily but now I am curious!)

Damet Garm, Mordam az bas depressed people didam. I hope you don't listen to Darioush (Khanandeh) either. It is about time to get rid of fricking sad faces (I know just saying that makes me sad)

Be Happy, always

by CS on

That’s the sweetest thing could write to me! Thank you so much!

 

I wanted to make people laugh and enjoy themselves with these pictures! After dealing with depression in years my mission on earth is to as giving with all I have in my life, money (ok not all of it), happiness, sadness!

Cool, at last

by Anonymous77 (not verified) on

At last someone who doesn't take himself too seriously and obviously had a fun time.
I like your Iranian Hitler, doing a 'chap chap' version.

To Poonahtehrani: get over it. The caption was written with fun and love.
You remind me of one those PC maniacs who see offence everywhere, when none is intended to ingratiate themselves into self-importance.

Well, well, well. What do we

by poonehtehrani on

Well, well, well. What do we have here? A bit of humour. Che jaaleb! Until I got to picture 018. You think Autism is funny? You're in Canada right? Could I have 30 minutes of your time to show you how funny Autism is?


Anonymouse

Which one is better Canada or Sweden?

by Anonymouse on

Since you moved from Sweden to Canada can you tell us which one is better?  We have an Iranian artist in Canada who at one point was talking about leaving Canada for Sweden.

Haaah!

by Jahanshah Javid on

I loved your sense of humor. I was sick of all the dry photo essays from Iran too. You made me laugh very early in the morning. I think I'll make it through the rest, with a smile. Thank you!

Congratulations!, you HAVE managed to make an ass out of yourself.

It would have been better not to have shared these with everyone on this site.

Enjoy yourself!
