@Lorraine: Hi Lorraine.... it was a very cold (not by Canadian standards!), maybe -10C late afternoon, sun almost down, my last day in Afghanistan and I had just been out for a quick walk to the shops... well that was the excuse, fortunately I had my camera with me ( :-) ) and took a whole pile of shots... mostly people... including some inside a local bakery - very atmospheric and interesting... just yards from our house, I snapped this image - she was happily skipping along on the ice as children do (p.s. didn't buy anything at the shops .. well carrying shopping cramps the photography a bit :-) ...tsccch my hands were FROZEN... but the photos were good!

Camiller from Lisboa, Portugal

What an amazing exprience it must have been to have been working in Afghanistan, your photographs give a wonderful insight to this beautiful country and it's people.
This is a brilliant shot and I look forward to seeing more.
