Just ran across this slideshow about the Taliban’s increasing presence in Kandahar, Afghanistan, at the NYT from Moises Saman, whose work never fails to impress. His personal site is well worth your time. This work appears on the site (in black and white) as part of a great selection of work from Afghanistan throughout summer 2008.
