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 a beautiful and large plain of rapeseed plants in Firuzkuh. These plants are cultivated industrially in this large area every year in May. I think there are 3 or 4 large farms in this area. The mountains opposite, covered in moving clouds, are a very snowy area known as the Gaduk Pass. Gaduk Pass is the name of a region in the south of Mazandaran Province and the northeast of Tehran Province, through which the road from Savadkuh County to Firouzkuh County passes. The Gaduk Pass experiences very cold winters and heavy snowfall. In this photo, I tried to show this beautiful field of rapeseed flowers with the backdrop of the mountains of the Gaduk Pass.

For this image, I used my Hasselblad 500 C/M camera and Carl Zeiss Distagon 50/f4 CFi FLE lens. I adjusted the lens on the hyperfocal. The image recorded with aperture 22 and shutter speed 1/8 seconds on Fuji Velvia 50 120 roll film.
