Photo by @andrewquilty for @burndiary. Goat Herders. 1.2.2014. Four young boys take a break from herding their goats on a rocky hillside in the #Panjshir #Valley, lighting a small #fire of grass and roots to warm their hands on a typically cold day in the high country north of #Kabul. This small valley, an offshoot of the Panjshir-proper, was, like the rest of the region, bombed almost to oblivion by #Soviet #planes and ground #troops in the 1980’s. Spotted throughout are graves adorned with the green flags that mark #martyrdom in some #Islamic traditions.#afghanistan #photojournalism #reportage #documentaryphotography
