[Leica] Steve McCurry (Afghan Women) Pirelli Calendar 2013:

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

These are excellent images as beautiful women as people. They are
interesting people and images as well as beautiful. Sure a bit sexy some of
them its not the end of the world. And they're not on the beach in thongs.
They're in real surroundings a truly great city to shoot peoples pictures
in.
Not the beach.

We love the beach. But we don't always have to be there.
