The most creative among scariest parade
Just to recall how it was back in 2007 and what was the difference between parades of 2007 and 2008
In 2007 it was more about election on the one hand but more fun an less economic-pain-related on the other hand…

‘Behind the Curtain’ series in the upcoming book of photojournale.com

Young ballerina awaiting to enter the stage
Here is a great news for me: a couple of my photographs from my series ‘Behind the Curtain’ were selected for the first upcoming book of photojournale.com.
I’ll update on the status of the project of course.
Here are the info and photographs from the series:
These images are part of the ‘Behind the Curtain’ series about Brighton Ballet Theater School of Russian Ballet.
Ballet is a fairy tale told in dances and music. Every concert shines and fills spectators with excitement and parents with pride. Kids dream and wait for each performance impatiently. And moreover they work extremely, unbelievably hard to get onto stage.
Mainly this series is about the spirit, self-discipline and power of dreams that help kids to go to the goal through all mistakes, physical pain and bitter of failures.

World Naked Bike Ride 2009
Every year, in cities around the world, people ride bikes naked to celebrate cycling and the human body.
The ride demonstrates the vulnerability of cyclists on the road and is a protest against car culture.
“It’s time to put a stop to the indecent exposure of people and the planet to cars and the pollution they create. We face automobile traffic with our naked bodies as the best way of defending our dignity and exposing the vulnerability faced by cyclists and pedestrians on our streets as well as the negative consequences we all face due to dependence on oil, and other forms of non-renewable energy. ”

School football
Just another day in Juniper Valley Park in Queens, New York City.
Park is pretty huge and it was crowded to its limits. As a foreigner I still can’t understand Americans’ love to the football
For me the soccer is much more cooler. Just kidding, but…
What I’m really concerned of is the traumatism in the football. I saw another day as a kid was hurt badly during a training session and got to emergency…
