My son sent some candids (done with a P&S) from Afghanistan. There's not much from there he'd like to see again, but he had a real affinity for the kids. I've done some minor editing-mostly cropping. Hope you enjoy

Re: Candids from Afghanistan
Kevin,
Thanks for sharing. If your son is not a photgrapher, he might want to consider it as a hobby, he appears to have a nice eye for it

As a retired Navy Combat Cameraman, I want to thank your son for his service and tell him that he has a great eye for images!

Re: Candids from Afghanistan
Thanks all, I'll pass along your kind messages of support. Richard, my son tells me the Rangers have fully combat-trained and photographically-trained soldiers that he has great respect for, who have been in the thick of it all.

Re: Candids from Afghanistan
U.S. Navy photographers have had "boots on the ground" in Afghanistan for years...

Re: Candids from Afghanistan
Great shots.....I must admit I get very upset when I see anything from Afganistan or Iraq....the loss of life on both sides is beyond justification and it breaks my heart......the sacrifice made by so few for something they hold so dear to their hearts and the effect it has on their families and friends is priceless...God Bless xx
