Firuzkuh is a county in Tehran Province in Iran. It is located north-east of Tehran, in the middle of Alborz Mountains. The city has a relatively cool and windy climate. It has some natural attractions and is famous for them, including Vashi canyon.

This is a picture of cypress trees that I took in late autumn, before the cold winter began, in Firuzkooh. Firuzkuh is a very cold region and its winters are usually snowy. I have never been to this area to photograph in the winter because the weather conditions require special equipment.

I used Hasselblad 500 C/M camera and Carl Zeiss Planar 80/2.8 lens then attached a Hoya red filter on the lens, and shoot by 1/8sec at f22 on Ilford Delta 100 roll film.
