Priviet, dear friends!
Before you visit Siberia (Siberia is traditionaly associate with severe winter...) you have your own idea and imagination of how people living there (such people are called Sibiryak's) look like.
Must say, that I met common people, just like living everywhere else...
We made friends with some of them...
Let me...
So...
partly its a joke...
This is my namesake, Yuri.

You must guess his profession. I understand how difficult it is, so here's another photo of Yuri with some datails of his house in the background.
I can add that his fists can be compared with small kids heads...
Sure he can put down a bull into a knock-out with one kick...

He's real 'Sibiriak'
I will give you some prompting if this test will be too difficult....
So,
What is his profession?

Spasibo
Yuri

    My guess: a builder...
    not a bodybuilder rolleyes1.gif but houses or bridges or roads.
    Excellent photography!

    Strongman....you have to be to live in Siberia. Great work. My friends just returned from a trip to Russia, I am not sure if they went to Siberia, but I can't wait to see their photos.

    Your work is wonderful. Sandy

    This is a fabulous portrait. As are they all.

    I would venture that he is a farmer. Perhaps grasses used in feeding?

    Thank you for sharing.

    prompting...
    His profession gives him an opportunity to live better then some people live here. To be rich.
    Despite this, you can find potatos and tomatos in his garden at the backyard. And his mother-in-law keeps vigilant watch over weeding, hilling and sometimes abuses Yuri, when she finds that something is wrong.
    Yuri lives in his own "modest" house

    This is one of the paradoxes of Russia
    he could own a farm, a factory and at the same time he has to grow potatos... :-)
    So, he is ....
