It is photos from the series “Russian season”.
If you ask a foreigner which season is associated for him with Russia then he’ll more likely answer the winter.
Russian winter – a great ancient myth recorded in Russian folk tales and Russian poetry, the cult that lives in the hearts of Russian people.
Anyone who lives in Russia has to love the winter, at least subconsciously. Winter decorates our country as perhaps no any other one. Under the snow disappear countless tons of debris and road wells, bad smells and bad mood. “Unwashed Russia” can become a kind of fairy-tale world.
