In Kandahar, Afghanistan, a man sits cross-legged on a concrete floor, diligently peeling garlic. He is dressed in a traditional brown shalwar kameez and a patterned cap. Before him lies a large pile of unpeeled white garlic bulbs, while he is in the process of separating individual cloves. Many peeled cloves are already gathered in a pink woven mesh bag positioned next to him. The background features a large, corrugated metal roller shutter, indicative of a market stall, shop, or storage area. The man appears focused on his task, working methodically with the garlic.
