"Mahabad" is my home town. Below is some information about my city. This shot has been taken around the Mahabad dam. Sunset moment beside a single tree.
Mahabad (in Persian: مهاباد , in Kurdish: Mehabad or Mihabad, alternative name: سابلاخ, Sablagh) is a city in northwestern Iran with a population of 133,324 in 2006 census. The city lies south of Lake Urmia in a narrow valley 1,300 metres above sea level, in West Azarbaijan Province.The name of 'Mahabad' (mah+abad) is the Persian translation of the ancient Mannaean name meaning place of moon, which is also a cognate with the Kurdish word mang. Mannaeans were a branch of Hurrians (Khurrites), a northern Mesopotamian people. It was referred to in the Turkic languages as 'Savoj-bolaq', or 'Sablakh', which means "Cold-spring water".
Mahabad is the centre of a rich agricultural region, but the city itself is little developed by Iranian standards. Mahabad is connected by road with Tabriz 300 km north, Urmia 150 km north and Irbil in Iraq. The population of Mahabad is predominantly Kurdish. The city has also a university, the Islamic Azad University of Mahabad. |

Hi Masroor
I am astonished, that such a superb sunset has 50 views, and no prior critiques. I like the reflected sheen on the water. Tfs!

Hi Dear Masroor
Nice shot of this beautiful scene, I like the way you capture the waves on water... light control on sky needs a little improvment. Happy with your new lens,
Regards, Alireza.
