Knot: Persian carpets in images by Jalal Sepehr

I have nothing useful to say about these images by Iranian photographer Jalal Sepehr: solely that I am posting them for the sheer joy of their beauty and so that as many people as possible can see them. More pictures from the Knot series are shown in a feature on the Ajam Media Collective site.
