Project RuSu 365

Not always so successful or interesting, & not always daily, though certainly a reflection of our daily lives - more like pick of the day. Our goal - to share our world and improve our skills. Thanks to all the members of the SmugMug Daily Community for your support and input. Feel free to leave feedback by clicking on 'Add Comment' below. We look forward to hearing your thoughts. The photo of the day will always be in first position. Thank you for looking. - Rustem Safronov & Susan Gilman a.k.a. RuSu. This gallery was started on October 26, 2010.

Henri Cartier-Bresson said, "Your first 10,000 photographs are your worst.", so bear with us...

  • Hard hat. Li Lihua's construction manager. A Hero of of Soviet labor for his work on the Baikal-Amur Railway, presently a construction manager in Blagoveshchensk. (Amur Region, Russia) (8.6.2011)
  • Evenk girl in traditional head dress. (8.5.2011)<br /> <br /> I suppose this could also be called, 'knowing when to give up' or 'don't get attached to a shot that's lacking the basics'. There were so many problems with this shot, but I like the look this girl's giving Rustem. Is she flirting with him? The camera? (He said it was the camera.) I took it to B&W as I just couldn't get the skin tones right, but she has such a pretty head dress I didn't want to lose it. Don't like the PP? Blame Susan. Have a good Friday.
  • Smelting gold at Petropavlovsk mining. (Amur Region, Russia) (8.4.2011)
  • Pickled garlic (8.3.2011)
  • Cottage used by Russian paleontologists in Blagoveshchensk. (8.2.2011)<br /> <br /> There's just something I like about this despite it's faults - the wind blowing the curtains, the traditional samovar on the table, & those large casts of dinosaur bones on the floor. Paleontologists cast the bones in plaster while still in the earth so they won't break when removed. These casts are of the bones of the Amurosauras, first discovered in 1991 by paleontologists Yuri Bolotsky and Sergei Kurzanov. <br /> <br /> Thanks to all for the welcome back & the comments on yesterday's berry shot.
  • Raspberries in our local market. (8.1.2011)
  • Some people take their dogs everywhere. (Ivanovskoye, Amur Region) (7.20.2011)
  • Young Oriental White Storks (Ciconia boyciana) high up in their nest in the Amur Region's Muraviovka Park. (7.19.2011)<br /> <br /> Not the best shot, but I thought the birders might be interested in seeing this this rare stork of which there are only about 2500 remaining in the world. A carnivorous stork with a wing span of more than 2 meters (7 feet), the Oriental White Stork is an endangered species that breeds only in the Amur-Heilong basin.
  • Kindergartener with sparkling eyes. This is a little Evenk boy in the village of Ivanovskoye, a two hour helicopter flight from the Amur Region's capital of Blagoveshchensk. The kindergarten he attends puts emphasis on retaining Evenk cultural identity. (7.18.2011)
  • In the kitchen of the Vostok Restaurant, one of the indomitable Ms. Li Lihua's restaurants in Blagoveshchensk, Russia. (7.17.2011)
