For some reason inhabitants of Saint-Petersburg are all in a good mood and keep dancing the whole day. Enjoy great pictures of beautiful dancing people from a mighty Russian city.

Tango is a treated as a beautiful dance in every place of the world. And it doesn’t matter where you dance it. This couple in the picture tried to share the emotions they experienced while dancing tango.

It is amazing how close these pictures are to my vacation pictures. Some of the same exact poses. Wow!
Amazing set of pics. Thanks ER.
Under Stalin these people would have received a one way trip to Siberia for petite Bourgeois expression
energy for dancing can only come from not working hard enough on the hydroelectric dam!
A. Bunka here. Joy is not a constructive socialist activity.
looks wonderful
PROOF!!
Homosexuality is alive and well in CCCP
Do you even know what you are talking about? The CCCP no longer exists. It dissappeared, probably forever in 1991.
What is homosexual about dancing, ya putz?
I guess you never danced with a pretty girl, huh.
If I bent like that I’d break something (else).
Very nice photos!
Only in Russia! lol.
they yall look so darn happy
Dancing lifts your spirit.
Glad someone’s happy (although I doubt any of these are workers).
You know it. The guys are all investment bankers, young gun lawyers- the women-models or art gallery workers.
Maybe they are dancers even…hey it could happen.
A. Bunka. The happiest workers are in the union, making good money, and their in the west.
Must be the North Pole aurora doing something to the population.
No they justed getting the rebroadcasts of Glee.
Very nice photos. St Petersburg looks like a very beautiful city. I only wish I could afford to visit it and enjoy the sights. Also Russian women are just something to behold, Their beauty is stunning
If you ever go to Piter, take my advice – take a tour, or get someone who knows somebody in militsiya.
There’s lots of OMON guys, and if they’ll sense that your a foreigner, they come up to check your papers. Usually they say that they have the right to arrest you for three hours. So that means, that if you won’t pay then, you’d be probably get beaten in the police station.
I’d love to visit it too. And by the way, Piter is the most beautiful in June, when Sun shines even at night and city never sleeps.
“legs up” and “jumps” does not mean dancing…
And the photo #22 is just terrific from photographers POV – the bird and the flower in wrong places, spoiling entire shot…
It’s life. beauty, nature, human and movement at the same time. Mb some photos are bad-done but the idea is really perfect. Russian people are very emotional and they’re not afraid of expressing their mood…
would have been awesome to watch this people dance live. But the in photos most of them look that they are stretching not dancing .
One of the best Photosets ever by ER. Amazing photos and poses!
great set of pics, loved them all, thanks
