Iranian Sunset

We left Mumbai around 2PM which had us flying over Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan during daylight hours. I was excited by the prospect of just looking down at those places. All three countries have intrigued me for years but I've been unable to visit for numerous reasons. Nevertheless, I took my first shot of an Iranian sunset from 33,000 feet.

Cliché? Yup.

It's good to start with clichés. Get them out of the way early so you can then address more challenging photographic endeavors without the temptation of waterfalls, pets and sunsets later on. No offense to landscape photographers, it's just not my thing.

Take pictures.
