I think they're an interesting-looking people. In general this thread is about their appearance and how they typically look. Iran is a big country with a lot of ethnic groups living in that country so looks may be quite varied.

Yep, Iran is an interesting place, but let's not forget that there are black Iranians too, especially living around the Strait of Hormuz in the south, around Bandar Abbas and Abadan.

Oh but I don't know, would they be considered proper Iranians by people of Persian blood?

From a casual look at those pictures, it seems there is less divergence of appearance in the men than the women.

Turkmens, I believe they have the highest concentration of R1b in Iran.

I don't think "Afro-Persians" are a significant minority otherwise they'd be more visible in today's Iran.
