As a street photographer, lights and shadows always have a powerful effect on me. Whenever i encounter lights and shadows i ask myself: how to use light and shadow in taking photos? How do they make an effect on my pics?

Sometimes lights and shadows make a real scene into a surreal one so anything can happen in a photo. I try to be at the correct moment in the correct place in order to record that moment and in this way lights and shadows are my inspirations.

In this collection i tried to show lights and shadows of my city Tehran and the life along them to present a new face of Tehran to you.
