We have lost one of the world's great photographers today. Ara Güler died today at 90 in Istanbul, Turkey. A good friend, always generous and quick to help, he was a great storyteller with a poetic eye. We always got together when I was in Istanbul. I made this portrait of him after dinner one night for my last roll of Kodachrome project in 2010.

I spent several days visiting various monasteries in #Bagan, #Myanmar, 2008. This one was all women. In complete silence one of the monastery dogs wandered into the meditation hall looking for its owner.

In 1992 I hitchhiked through the Hazarajat region in central #Afghanistan. I always wanted to see the colossal Buddhas of #Bamiyan. On our way back to Kabul we were stopped at gunpoint by bandits. They took our money and some of our things, miraculously we convinced them to let me keep my camera equipment.

Swipe to see a portrait made by Mahsuoma, a student of the Young Women's Photography Initiative (sponsored by @imagine_asia) in #Kabul, #Afghanistan. Classes were taught at the Andeshagah Library by Gulbuddin Elham. The goal of the program is to give students the opportunity to document their communities by giving them the tools to create their own art.

#Budapest, #Hungary, 1988.

In 1986 I spent 2 weeks with Nándor and Ilona Budai and their two children at their home in #Budapest. Warm and welcoming, they invited me in to photograph their daily lives. When I asked them if I could photograph them before bedtime they laughed, but didn’t hesitate. I was fortunate to visit their home again in 2015 and reminisce how many changes have taken place in #Hungary.
