It's never an easy task to choose a right image for some contest. And what exactly is "the right image". Everything is about the personal taste - "what is good for Russian, death for a Frenchman" - as the very old saying goes. Really sorry my French friends and the followers - not my saying. I just heard this phrase too many times due to my childhood and youth spent in a Russian-speaking community. I never was too proud about, especially what is Russian government doing these days.
Well, as usual, i lost the way of my narrative. All these portraits i photographed during my street walks. Most of these strangers happily agreed to be photographed. Some of them i photographed also on film camera for my ongoing project.
