Photos of Russians by a Russian

[Gwyn]

Came across this article about a Russian photographer who wanted to confront the stereotype of Russians as bleak, cold and drunk. Enjoy

Have you seen Tatoolya's pictures of Vologda? @tatoolya

Having been to Russia, I do not adhere to the author's stereotype belief. Thanks for sharing, enjoyed the article.

I am very sad that of Russia formed an opinion((.
Yes, some people have a problem with alcohol, but also among us many artists, musicians, writers. Very beautiful Vologda lace!

@shannejw Thanks for the intro to @tatoolya!

@tatoolya I am looking forward to following your photos. I love seeing everyone's world through their own eyes. The 365Project is a cheap form of traveling and a great way to break stereotypes. Cheers!

Those are beautiful pictures but I was shocked at the caption of the one where people swim in a spring that contains radon. woa.

Fabulous pictures! So sad that we didn't make it to Russia when we lived in Germany. We just collected the lacquered boxes and nesting dolls.
