Revisiting old images again. Taken near Jalalabad, Afghanistan 2005.
"The guy with the camera is back", though I am only guessing at what he said. I had little to do here, so I took a lot of photos of the people who worked in the field behind the camp.
Jalalabad Runway
Our running area at Jalalabad, which was also the runway. C-130's get the right of way.
A colorful sunset in Jalalabad. Smoke from fires, dust and high humidity made for great sunrises and sunsets.
Jalalabad, Afghanistan
Kite flying in Afghanistan.
Somewhat of a national sport here. I like how this kite catches the late afternoon light at sunset.
Been revisiting some of my older images, with newer software tools, and a different perspecitve. This one also sort of stood out for me.

I like the backlighting here, but the B&W version is my favorite. See Black and White gallery.
Minaret in Dubai, July 2005.
Sunset, Persian Gulf, July 2005. Very little processing, these are natural colors due to the dust/humidity. Really amazing copper color on the water.
Mazar, E Sharif, Afghanistan
The vast plains and the mountains of Northern Afghanistan, November 2005.

A photo I previously wrote off as unsalvageable. It's not perfect, but it's so much better than the original RAW. Was using a soft focusing lens, along with low light, not a good combination. Despite sharpening, out of focus is out of focus, and I probably have recovered as much sharpness as I can get. Hopefully its not oversharpened.
Just outside Mazar E Sharif.

This fellow spoke a little English, and we had a custom of walking from the gate and making small talk every morning while they were working at our camp. I sensed a great deal of curiosity about us (Americans in general) and he would ask me questions about life at home.
