Afghanistan: Caravanserai At Dusk

I shot this caravanserai at dusk in Ghazni, Afghanistan, in 1965 while on a National Geographic assignment to document a summer-end migration of Kuchi (Pashtun) nomads from the cooling Hindu Kush Mountains down to the warmer lowlands around Jalalabad.

J’ai photographié ce caravansérail à Ghazni, en Afghanistan, en 1965. Le magazine National Geograpic m’y avait envoyé pour photographier la migration de fin d’été des nomades Kuchi (Pashtoun) et de leurs troupeaux entre les froides montagnes de l’Hindou Kouch et les terres chaudes autour de Jalalabad.
