This blog was designed to keep the life histories which otherwise might have been erased and forgotten from memory. Though personal photos are displayed and described, the purpose behind was the landscape of history. What and who we were or we were not, and how our identities formed then changed through times is demonstrated through family photos and their backgound hitories. These are our past identities.

A freindship that lasted for many years.
These photos and many others were also taken by Mani in all the gardens of the college. It seemed Mani was always present there and we were ready for a shoot. Here I am in various poses with my friend Esmat Dargahi. I befriended her in the second year and our friendship deepened as it went alond. She always wore a scarf as she believed it right for her and we dide not mind that. Years later, Esmat was promoted as headmastewr of a large boys school; still wearing the headscarf but in fashion. She believed she looked like Indian actresses and the next photo was taken bearing that in mind. The first photo was taken in year 1960 but the rest were taken a year later in 1961 .
