Photo Sunday

Hanging out, and it is quiet which is normal for a Sunday morning. It seemed like just the right time to catch you up on pictures.

Taken earlier this month when we had a bit of wind and some blowing dust

dust and dirt in the air - Bagram

and yes, that is dust – not clouds.

    Wow. The air shots are amazing and number 0381 of the sleeping soldier is fantastic

    What an amazing place. I get a sense centuries of horsemen, their heads and faces wrapped in cloth to protect them from the dust.
    HOW do people survive here? Are there jobs that bring some food to the family or do the young men sit around smoking hash to pass the many hours of boredom before they decide it is better to sacrifice themselves and go to ‘Paradise’?
    How do you feel when you see this sort of landscape? You are an amazing woman!

    Thanks for the photos on Sunday. Looks like the high plateau of Colorado in some respects – but so dusty.
