Mohamad,

I am very sorry to hear this. Your photos are not only original but often they provide an insight to real Iran.

I am sure others feel the same way.

Hi Mohamad,

I agree with Foxy. We can only hope that the Iranian authorities realise that they are harming their international image by this sort of action.

Trusting that all is well with you.

Mohamad, I too enjoy your pictures, they give a great insight into your country, they broaden my knowledge and teach me much. I hope this situation is soon resolved.

What a great shame, politics screws everything up. I also learnt a lot about your country simply by looking at your photographs, I will miss them.

Well, if it is true I am greatly saddened and feel the Iranian Authorities are doing themselves a great disservice. All the best Mohamad.

Sorry to hear you can't post any of your wonderful photos of your country Mohamad, I have missed them. I do hope it can be sorted soon so you can be an active member again.
Take care.

I feel the same as other friends here.

Please listen carefully to Chris first. If others can send may be your computer or internet service provider are at fault. So would be good to try to send picture from a different location, say at work or a friends home. I hope that is the cause and you may need some new patch or updating your browser etc. Otherwise it is not clear to me why a Government wants to stop one person to send routine pictures when many photography sites such as Akkasee.com etc are filled with tones of images daily and are accessible from everywhere. Are you able to load picture for local sites?

Well Safety first, no matter what. And like others I am hoping you problem is solved soon and we can enjoy your very nice images again.

Default "Grapes and villagers"

am attaching a pic sent by Mohamad via email, so he is not totally razed

Perhaps a mod can push it into his gallery?
