Back soon In the meantime I will leave you with a photo from 208, a cairn on one of the Paps of Anu in Ireland. I know it's apeared here before but what harm in the odd repeat!

Dances with (well on) Mullahs
Jump Rope from Firoozeh Bazrafkan on Vimeo.
Before I take my break here is one of a couple of things I couldn't resist posting. This video is by the supremely talented Iranian artist Firoozeh Bazrafkan. Firoozeh lives and works in Denmark.
Time for a break
Will take a break from posting for a little while. There is so much I want to write about, particularly about Hungarian PM Orban and his increasing despotism but I am not in the mood.
Back soon.
Back soon.
Like Aliaa El Mahdy did last year, Gofishteh is making a powerful statement about cultural policies in Iran and particularly the status of women in that country.
The Iranian regime has had a hissy fit and she has basically been told not to return to the country.
Like Aliaa El Mahdy I salute Golshifteh's action. It is her body, her right and her choice. The gimlet eyed misogynists that rule Iran can go fuck themselves

What a difference a year makes
Revised photos from my first shoot with Tim last January. How unadventurous these seem now!
