scan - the best dome

my first scan is the beautiful roof of the timchah amin dawlah in kashan, iran. click on it for the big version and check out the staircases... awesome. from the lavishly illustrated "sufi: expressions of the mystic quest" by laleh bakhtiar, a decent book from the excellent thames and hudson art & imagination series. (that link only shows like eight of the 30+ titles for some reason... i'd reccomend the sacred geometry book, the zen book and oddly, the surprisingly informative angel book by the sketchy but impossible-to-ignore peter lamborn wilson a.k.a. hakim bey.)
