Almost exactly on the top left corner is something that looks quite strange. I went to the high red image and happened to zoom in a lot. I cannot indentify what it is. Curiosity has me asking what you think it is.
It's just a piece of the shot hit the shed roof. Shed on this photo is on my left Here it is on the other side.
Now away from the forum. My wife asked me to take out the trash And on the way back did just a picture of your yard from the door. Just.
On the street there is a heat, unusual for our places. Today there were 33°C (91°F). Therefore I will add still winter photos Still frosty patterns. My mother in the village photographed the windows.
In July, on vacation for three weeks I went with my family to the sea. The seats were not very interesting from the point of view of photography, but little came across interesting. For example, the grass-snake crawling through a small river
It's good to see photos of 'nature in the raw' but no way could I spend my entire life in any country which is cold all the time! I'd have move south - a long way south!
Russia is very extended in latitude. Northern (inhabited) areas are above the Arctic Circle, where permafrost and polar night, which lasts for months. For example, Murmansk, where 300,000 people live. As in Pittsburgh. And the most southern cities are at the latitude of Nebraska, Iowa, Chicago ... So it is possible to choose a place of residence for the soul Although most of the Russian climate is similar to Canada. And people also live in Canada: D The climate of Moscow is somewhere between Calgary and Winnipeg's climate. ... About my photos. I have not decided where to write better in this topic or in my blog on this forum. So that part of the photo is placed there: http://www.politicalforum.com/blogs/balancer/
On the Boulevard on the way from my work to the subway, set these glow in the dark flowers. Very nice, although the photo with my smartphone may not transfer the right color...
By Russian standards, in Moscow, a temperate climate. The temperature rarely drops below -20 °C (-4 °F). And snow in many places, too, is much more For example, winter in Norilsk (not my photo). The thermometer -64 °C (-83 °F). Russian woman in Norilsk
Just found this thread and really enjoyed all the beautiful and exceptional pictures. Russia is a mystery to me....well as any place outside of US. So this was nice.
Not every day in Moscow will see an icicle, which grows sideways: D I saw this morning, when the assigned daughter to school
On Friday morning brought the daughter to school and the eye was fixed for such frosty patterns on bus-stop glass. Took away the daughter from school in the afternoon and has thought that how many I live in the area, but didn't photograph the Moscow monorail in frosts And it was the whole problem. At first trains of a monorail have bought in Switzerland, but there were problems with their use in frosts. It was necessary to do the, Russian trains later. Now, however, in 15 years of operation, rumors about possible closing of a monorail in favor of the tram go.
Has the Dyatlov Pass mystery been solved yet? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyatlov_Pass_incident Basically 9 hikers in the Urals in 1959 slashed their way out of their tent with knives and ran a mile partially-clothed to the forest where they all froze to death, and nobody knows why.
Beautiful photos. I have been to Russia. It's a beautiful country. Красивые фото. Я был в России. Это прекрасная страна.

Before the New Year with my family, we went to the rink. Along the way, I took a picture of the Ostankino tower in the low clouds You know, it's 1772-foot structure is not buried like anything special, but just standing, unfastened, posed on the platform? This is called "free-standing structure".
Over 40 years ago I went to the main branch of the Brooklyn Public Library and borrowed a book which was a collection of old Russian winter forest tales. How I loved that book and wish to have an entire collection of such stories! The BPL is next door to Prospect Park, just blocks from where I lived. For years I would take long walks there and imagine myself having adventures in the Russian forest. To Balancer - please give us many, more pictures of these if you can. Thanks!
