[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A rare blue sky in the Siberian city of Irkutsk. These painters actually indicated to me they didn't want me photographing them. Their body language was more easily understood than their Russian. Taken near the market located just downhill from the Nerpa Seals Aquarium, which was closed, the day I went to visit.

The nerpa seals are endemic to lake Baikal, & are the world's only freshwater seals.

I love the colors here Chris! Very much like Mexico! LOTS of colorful buildings! This is a great shot, despite them not wanting to be photographed!

A nice daily street life scene, Chris. Nice colours all around, a very special kind of self-made ladder too ;o). Well spotted. Not quite the same as a couple of seals, but a good alternative.

This features your distinctive colour range and contrast signature - there is something recognisable from the thumbnail alone about your work.
Colourful shot with plenty of detail, a 'slice of life' in truly honest fashion.

Hi Chris,

Well you had your picture.
Seems here that they are using different cans of paint, but I love the effect.
Lovely daily life scene.

Another fine bit of photojournalism. It's also a great lesson on making the most of a bad situation (e.g. finding the aquarium closed)
