Apologies to all and sundry, if my previous comment was taken in any way as an attempt to disparage the picture above. Once again the photographer has captured the inate boredom of work. It's a startling piece of unsurpassed genius.
This is a classic B/W shot. Good composition, great detail, the faces of the 2 'main' people in the shot are very expressive. Really nice lighting - you chose a great moment.

@Daroru: Cheers Daroru. Waited for ages for the sun to hit the old man's face, but it wasn't going to.
Judging by your resent post you made it back to the UK safe and sound.
Interesting photo, I get the impression some sort of event is happening looking at all the people in the street.

@Fred: No special event, just a normal day on Istiklal Street. Got back here from the UK safe and sound - though still recovering from holiday fun :)
