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.

Shadows on the wall. (2.19.2012)
Was going to use this for Paula's shadow challenge, but wasn't around for it, so here it is today.
![Today's a federal holiday here in Russia. During the Soviet era it was known as Soviet Army Day; it's now known as Defender's of the Fatherland Day. Although this day honors all those who serve and have served in the military & isn't specific to WWII, I thought I'd post this shot of a monument and eternal flame honoring those who lost their lives in WWII - the Soviet Army's greatest victory [along with a little help from the Allies]. More than 20,000,000 Soviets lost their lives during WWII, split almost equally between military & civilians. <br />

Conscription is still mandatory in Russia. Rustem was a lieutenant in the Soviet Air Force, so it's a day we celebrate. This photo was taken on the grounds of the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin. (2.23.2012)](https://photos.smugmug.com/Photography/Project-RuSu-365/i-2qKDGNJ/0/e6b815b3/Ti/IMG_4568D-Ti.jpg)
