Photographer’s Note
A boy feeding the white pigeons of the shrine of Hazrat Ali, the son-in-law and cousin of the Prophet Mohammed in the city of Mazar-e-Sharif in Balkh province of Ariana. The site is so sacred that all pigeons that come to reside near the shrine will turn white within 40 days. Seeing as the hundreds of pigeons are indeed white except for a few new arrivals still in transition that display only a small amount of coloration.
