Afghanistan Buzkashi Customs Dust Dusty Games Groups Horses Kabul Sport Sports


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Buzkashi, Kabul, Afghanistan, Asia" photographer Robert Cundy beautifully captures the essence of a traditional Afghan sport amidst the dusty landscape of Kabul. The image transports us to a world where ancient customs and thrilling games intertwine. The scene unfolds with a group of men on horseback, their faces masked by swirling dust clouds as they fiercely compete in Buzkashi. This exhilarating sport involves players vying for control of a goat carcass while riding at breakneck speeds across an open field. It is not just a game; it represents the resilience and strength deeply ingrained in Afghan culture. As we gaze upon this horizontal composition, we are drawn into the intensity and passion radiating from each participant. The horses' powerful strides kick up plumes of dust that hang suspended in the air like ethereal veils. This photograph serves as a testament to both the physical prowess required to excel in Buzkashi and the unwavering spirit of unity among these individuals who gather together under clear blue skies. It reminds us that even amidst challenging circumstances, people find solace and joy through shared traditions. Cundy's skillful lens captures not only an enthralling moment frozen in time but also offers us a glimpse into Afghanistan's rich cultural tapestry. Through his artistry, he invites viewers to appreciate both the beauty found within diversity and humanity's universal love for sportsmanship and camaraderie.
