Hi Mohammad,
One of the best photos from Tehran, a little blurry but with this pollution value of Tehran, it is not possible to have better than it.
Thanks for sharing

Hi Mohammand,
great picture of the Milad Tower illuminated at night. I don't know if you've used a tripod but an ISO setting of 100 (and a higher exposition) would have given a better sharpness and contrast to the picture.
Whatsoever a beautiful picture with nice colors from the Milad Tower at night.

Ali,
Good capture of the tower and a very good night shot with good details and sharpness, I like the beam of lights and the twinkling city lights. Very good vertical crop to accentuate the height of the tower. Thanks

Hello Mohammad -
This is a very nice image and I do like how you have captured the rays of light radiating from the tower. I have found that images such as this look a little better captured when there is still some light in the sky so the viewer is not looking at large areas of darkness. Also, with a night shot the noise is going to be most noticeable in the black sky. Is the tower really leaning to the right? This is something that should have been addressed in PP.
Thank you for sharing.
