This Russian people don't want Moscow city authorities to build new road on their land. They didn't get the payment proposal to sell it, but just an order saying that their land is being taken for city

needs (of course they were promised something in exchange) but it seems they didn't like the offer, so they still manage to hold the land despite the road has already been opened.

Another Russian fun to dress into the medieval Russian warriors, then build some castles of wood logs and play real time 3d strategies,

without using computers, but with real iron weapons. Some parties also use fire to burn the castle down and occupy it.

There are everyday some short things going around Russian blogs that can't be put in a separate post, because they lack pictures and have just a few words to tell about them but still look cool. So I decided to put them from time to time in one post. For today we have a few too. First one is the Russian family back from end of 19th century. At that times big families were a good tradition of Russian nation and sometimes they were as big as this one, so they could make those cool according to height standing photos. The second story was about this young Russian boy. What he doing on this photo is sleeping when it is strong minus outside but he gets heated by the body of dying sea cow. He got very tired during the walrus hunt and while others were busy moving the giant dead bodies to the ship he got his minute and felt asleep on a warm

animal. Another one is no-photoshop shot of the Moon rising above the church in St. Petersburg, Russia. He used some special lens of course, but no post photo processing. This story was about a Japanese wildlife photographer who was killed by a brown bear in Kamchatka, Russia. This was yesterday spread across blogs as his last photo, taken seconds before death. Impressive isn't it? For a big pity its a fake, according to his biography he didn't make some last photo, but was carried away by a bear from his tent to the forest and his friends couldn't find him. And a small video, back from 1986, when Soviet Union was still alive, but already close to its total collapse. This is the commercial for a JUICER (no brand, just generic soviet juicer).

Some people think that during Soviet era there were no alternative art in Russia, but only portraits of Lenin were popular and only scenes of everyday Soviet life were depicted. To tell truth I was a bit shocked when met those installations by Russian (yes, he is Russian, no matter what was his name - he had Spanish father but was raised by Russian mother in Russia) artist Francisco Infante-Arana. He

used no photoshop, mainly because most of the images you see in this post are from 1970-1980s, he used only natural objects like mirrors, ropes and cords and endulged a lot into the effect of light and shadow. He became widely recognized even by Soviet officials and hold personal exhibitions, as well as his art pieces were shown in main Russian museums like Tretyakovka.
