I really enjoy the multimedia presentations of different places around the world on many of the many US newspaper websites. Here is a very interesting one from the New York Times website. It's a photo report on Peshawar Pakistan. Peshawar is a battleground between the Islamic extremist groups like the Taliban and the Pakistani government. Click the link below to get to the slideshow. The pic above is the first one in the show... a striking black and white shot.

This report is very powerful due to the pictures being black and white. It makes Peshawar looks like an ancient, timeless and dangerous city, and in recent times, it's become extremely dangerous because of the increasing numbers of Taliban members.
My dad wanted to buy a gun here, and we made plans to go to the Gun Market in Peshawar, but suicide bombings there delayed our plans, but one day we will surely go. I've never been there and am looking forward to going there.
