Traveled to Hormozgan and saw many beauties, got inspired, and took many many photos. I wore a traditional dress, put a Burqa mask on my face, and put henna on my hand. Also decided to draw myself! (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄

A halo (also known as a nimbus, aureole, glory, or gloriole) is a crown of light rays, circle or disk of light that surrounds a person in art. It has been used in the iconography of many religions to indicate holy or sacred figures, and has at various periods also been used in images of rulers and heroes. In the religious art of Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism among other religions, sacred persons may be depicted with a halo in the form of a circular glow, or flames in Asian art, around the head or around the whole body. 📸 5.
