While Traveling In Afghanistan, I Saw This Country In A Different Light; Here Are 28 Photographs I Took
I am Jafar Frotan, a photographer, graphic designer, web developer, and musician.
These photographs are from 3 years ago, and here are the most beautiful images I captured in Afghanistan. My journey is not over yet, as I will post more from Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Italy, and other places I intend to visit.
I hope you like them, and I will be happy if you share your opinions about my photos!

I am so torn by this photo. Of course the composition is extremely striking. And the photographic quality is very high. But, as most of us know, the women in Afghanistan--or indeed any fundamentalist society--live a very painful, oppressed existence.
I don't know why, but the big thing looks like gigantic pile of garbage on this picture. Please don't downvote, just sharing what I see.
Thank you for sharing these great photos with the rest of us. I'll never travel to Afghanistan, so it is a special treat when someone who has seen the country can post pictures of every day life.
Such a beautiful place, torn apart by war. It's a shame that it's likely a country most of us will never visit. But it is beautiful to see this side to the country, the everyday life, the beautiful sights and lovely smiles despite what people there may be going through.
Having served there, it is interesting to see the other side of the country, and really sad that ordinary citizens go through so much and can’t just enjoy their country for the beautiful place it is.
An old friend of mine served there. He spent a lot of time with locals in his role and he said the country is just beautiful and the people lovely.
