he was very sympathetic,trying to sell goods in old arbat.I was passing by but suddenly I noticed the smilarity between the matrouchka and him.I asked if he knows about that and he explained in an ashamed manner that he was living at that village where they produce those matrouchkas. He , as an old man in that village had been subject to a series of matrouchkas so in a way he will live 4ever.Who wants to live forever,he has found the formula.

Hi Nejat,
It is interesting to look at earlier posting... This one of course caught my attention because of seasonal connection! Very good portrait with good lighting, giving pleasant tones and nice details... Well composed!
