Camel


This is a camel. The gray thing in the foreground is my rifle strap. I did not shoot the camel.

This is what a typical street looks like in Afghanistan on the edge of a city. It was so hot in Afghanistan the only thing that compares in America is sticking your head in an oven or over an open flame.

I found some photos from Afghanistan I thought I had lost



It is cathartic for me to present these photos to the world to see. My time in Afghanistan was so stressful and so hard to relate to people who have not been there, that it remains a secret despite my trying to talk about it. The top photo is me, the middle photo is a food stand next to a highway outside of Kandahar, and the bottom photo is the kids that lived next to our base.

Afghanistan


Here are two pictures from Afghanistan. The top one is me with some kids who befriended us while we spent hours guarding, the bottom one is a shot of the mountains around Kandahar with the city sprawling underneath it.
