Turkmen from North Afghanistan

Posted by Sojourner (Aqcha, Afghanistan) on 31 January 2008 in People & Portraits.

I'm sharing some more photos taken during last week's clothing distribution. The characteristic faces of the Turkmen people keep intriguing me and I like these particular gentlemen for their friendly smiles. I often look at how often the clothing is repaired as an indication of someone's resources (or the lack thereof).
