A gesture of friendship from a young Iranian girl, visiting the Naqsh-e Rostam cliff tombs with her family near Persepolis.

Surpassed only by the Japanese, the Iranians must be the some of the world's most enthusiastic shutterbugs. In the background, you can see her father recording the scene with his own video camera. As we traveled the country, we were continually being stopped by people who wanted to be photographed or videotaped with us.
