How to take photos of Taliban???
I'm going to travel to Afghanistan next month and I'd
like to take some photos of Taliban. However, I've heard that Taliban don't like to be photographed, they'll most likely capture or even kill me. So, how can I take photos of Taliban without being taken hostage or being killed???

Pay them. One Hundred New Sheqalim should be about right.

So, how can I take photos of Taliban without being taken hostage or being killed??? I can't tell about Afghanistan, but I was in Pakistan (Northern part). My observation is, that if I first asked the people where all happy to pose. Just get in contact with the people first. Show them your interest in them and go and drink a chai. The people there are very friendly and will invite you to their house. Best thin to do is to meet people who live there for years and let them teach you about the culture. Takin photographs is also about culture! And don't believe CNN! "Afghanistan = Taliban" is as wrong as "Taliban = Terrorist" and many other things. Go and learn to love the people there! And don't try to pretend that you believe the same as they believe. Be honest and they will be interested in you. I wish you the best for your journey.
