New Paradigm
This picture is an illustration from Russian governmental social site http://deti.wwwerh.ru/ which deals with different family issues. It looks ok - like a simple family, with lot of kids etc.

First Russian PCs
These are personal computers that are being used in 80s in Russia. Sergei Frolov has them all in his collection.

Moscow Dungeons
These are photos of different underground parts of Moscow by Russos. He makes official photos for Moscow Subway System so he often visits different underground places in Moscow that cannot be accessed by a regular person. He is fond of HDR post-processing of the photos so they look like a little bit overprocessed but still very cute.
New Russian Churches
Probably in the nearest future Russian Orthodox Christian churches would get a new look.
