These are two shots of the world's biggest Lenin head, located in Ulan-Ude. The first shot was obviously photoshopped. Both were taken just before Victory Day (May 9th), which was a huge celebration here this year, since it was the 60 yr anniversary of winning WWII. I'd love some comments - there are more photos of the event, and ulan -ude at www.reqphotos.com :huh :huh :huh :huh :huh :huh

    I thought of that place!
    When you mentioned the big head..:-)

    I've been to Ulan-Ude about 20 years (on our way to cat 5 white water rafting) and we were "shocked and awed" to see this. Especially if you looking at it from the left - you know, from the street, when you just turn over the corner, enter the square - and you see this Huge Thing..

    Do you have more pictures of that place?

    [Edit]
    oops, sorry, found them!
    I meant this view:
