Photographer’s Journal: Kabul in Transition

Times photographer Tyler Hicks documents changes in Afghanistan’s capital city, as it absorbs a growing foreign presence even as traces of Taliban influence remain.

heads up: this is a pretty old post, it may be outdated.

Interesting but rather brief audio slideshow by Tyler Hicks on Kabul.

Hicks narrates the show himself in a boring, monotone voice, and with some slow string music in the background. I'd have liked to hear more details like the escalator, but I do really like the choice to crop all photos wide and short.
