Where are the sculptures?

Some years ago, Azerbaijani artists made statues of a number of Azerbaijani historical illustrious and heroes and dedicated them to Tehran municipality to put them in different areas of Tehran which is a residence place for millions of Azeri Turks. Sattarkhan, Baghirkhan (Constitution activists) and Shahriar's (Poet) bronze statues installed in Sattarkhan Park, Shahrara Park and Theatershahr.

I was eager to see them but there was not chance for visiting until last week I read in some websites that Shahriar's statue has been vanished! And one day later, another surprising news published: "Sattarkhan and Baghirkhans statues disappeared too"!
After missing them, further bronze statues were stolen; but there is a question for me:
"Why have vandal rubbers lifted Azerbaijani statues in first phase?"

Yesterday I succeeded to sea only empty place of my favorite famous persons' statues! I wish I took images from statues:

Empty places of Statues - Səttarxan və Bağırxanın heykəllərinin boş yerləri

Earth Day

It is Earth Day. This is the merged image of my brother's acrobatic moving on the prairie, in April 1st that is new solar year's 13th day (13 Bedar, Onuchunju Gun or the Nature Day).

The Sparrow and Cherry Blooms

There is a sparrow between cherry blooms. I wanted to take a photo from it; afterward, It was hard to find the bird; is it visible for you?!

The Land of Fire

The last 3 Wednesdays’ evenings of solar year is called “Od Günü Axşamı” or “Çərşəmbə Axşamı” in Turkish, and “Chaharshanbeh Souri” in Persian. Folkloric ceremonies of these days recently have been replaced by too dangerous fireworks (Or street cracking) in Tehran! That was not endurable for me! Indeed, I escaped from Tehran this week. Old traditions as jumping over the fire are already being saved in Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan’s other name is “Odlar Yurdu” means “The Land of Fire”.


Happy new year, happy ‘Novrouz’ holidays, happy ‘Argana Gun Bayramı’.

The Almond Blooms Park

The municipality of Kivi town (North Western of Iran, Azerbaijan/Ardabil Province) changed one of part of old ‘KhanliqBaghi’ (Khanate Garden in Turkic) to a modern park! Furthermore, it was renamed to ‘The Almond Blooms Park’.
After sum years you can see one of almond trees in this park:


Special Thanks to Mehdi for sending this image.
Happy New Year to all tree and nature lovers.

The Snowy Trees - 3

And snowfall continues, so my snowy trees chain probably will be longer; because my cousin (Mehdi) sends some his fascinating snapshots from my motherland.

Special thanks to Mehdi
