Unfulfilled Dreams and Desires
When I first set eyes on the camera viewfinder
sixty
years
ago
on a
day
such
as
this
one,
a
pact
was
made
between
me
and
the
art
of
photography
which
continues
to
this
day.
My
pact
was
made
initially
with
a
news
camera,
bringing
me
closer
to
humanity
by
becoming
attached
to
his
works,
temperament,
nature
and
thoughts.
Eight
years
passed.
The
making
of
the
camera
was
revolutionized,
thus
bringing
my
generation
even
closer
to
humanity
as
we
registered
his
behave
ours
quicker
than
ever
before.
My
generation
was
the
first
to
set
foot
in
the
arena
of
professional
photography
accompanied
by
such
a
phenomenon.
The
art
of
the
photographer
and
photography
took
over
us
body
and
soul.
We
swept
around
the
world
and
captured
it.
And
in
Iran,
by
having
a
tool
such
as
the
National
Iranian
Television
Organization
at
hand
with
its
millions
of
viewers,
I
endeavored
to
develop
and
expand
modern
photography
in
the
country.
