lovely friend, Deanne Fitzmaurice, and I have been talking a lot about Media Storm lately, a website that I keep an eye on for amazing stories. I've not been there in a little while, and with Deanne joining Twitter a couple of days back, I noticed that she was following Founder and Executive Producer, Brian Storm - Then earlier today I had their email in telling me about the latest news and content on the website. I finally made it across this evening and found "a Darkness Visible | Afghanistan" (VII Photographer, Seamus Murphy - Please have a look at his website, he's brilliant) Well, there's nothing more I need say - watch the video, I challenge you to not find it moving.
Based on 14 trips to Afghanistan between 1994 and 2010, A Darkness Visible: Afghanistan is the work of photojournalist Seamus Murphy. His work chronicles a people caught time and again in political turmoil, struggling to find their way. See the project at http://mediastorm.com/publication/a-darkness-visible-afghanistan
