Hi Laurant !! ca va ? I like all the mosque photos ! a good frame...
& let me add, now having connected eyebrows is not a la mode ! it was a tradition in qajar period ( 200 years ago ) which was a symbol of beauty for women, even they blacken their eyebrows & connected them more(!!) with some herbal colors or some powder called " Sormeh " for drawing eye-lines too...the result : a pair of impressive, lover-killing eyes....
