Thank you for taking the trouble and probably risk to capture and share such scenes that few tourists would visit.

This gallery is beautiful and frightening and sad. I admire the way you managed to keep a (short) distance and still become part of (and capture) the real live. Moving, compassionate pictures.

This gallery has the quality of a photo-reportage.
You are a very talented and sensitive photographer.

It's great to see Kabul since I have heard so much from the press and they hardly show any pictures. Love the gallery
