Again I have been holding off on posting about Kashmir, because the situation here has been a bit uncertain. After the burning down of the Dastageer Sahab shrine, tensions went up a bit as all of Kashmir was closed down for nearly five days. Because of the sensitivity of the situation here I will probably post more after I leave the region.

Since things have re-opened I have met and photographed some women who lost family members over the past decade or two. We also took a few days off while things were cooling down in the city.

Connectivity has also been a bit of a problem, so I am doing this post from my phone again. Here is a photo I took in the remains of Dastageer Sahab. I’ll post more later. This man crawled prone to the shrine while we were there.
