Iran Solidarity Protest

Shot my fourth Iran protest today over at Lenox Square Mall at the intersection of Lenox Road and Peachtree Street.  I think I mentioned this last time (see my past few attempts here), but after shooting so many it becomes a challenge to find some new way to show the same thing I’ve done before.

I decided to focus on details and the younger generation today who probably doesn’t totally understand why they are even there.  I think it worked pretty well, or at least I hope it did.

Yes, those are chopsticks.  No, I don’t know why she has them.

  3. Very cute!! I love how you captured the young generation. After all, 2/3rds of Iran’s population is under 30 and this is very significant because the voice of the youth has been very strong.

  6. As always great job Josh, and yes I think you caught the youngest generations very well actually…
    It’s interesting because when I was that age… the 1979 Revolution was happening, the Islamic Revolution… I was 2 years old… and now I see children witnessing a new revolution just at I did…amazing, will our children also see another revolution in 30 years?
    I hope they won’t have to.
