Priviet, dear friends!
Asked her and she agreed to be photographed...
Don't know her name, nor address, nor phone No ...

    Yuri, I have learned a lot from looking at your portraits. You have a gift of picking such interesting angles. I have problems finding such great models and getting them to pose so nicely, but next time I do I'm going to try some angle shots like this. You are also so great with colors. Seems there is real high style in Russia.
    If not now, when?

    Absolutely lovely, caught in the famous Yuri-spirit! You really master this form of photography, Yuri! I gotta try your method some day, just walk up to'em and ask! So many times I thought "Oh, how I would like to take a portrait of her / him!" Tell me, how many "No" do you get on one "Yes"? :o)

    goodness!:wow Yuri, how do you find such lovely subjects just hanging around on the the streets and get them to agree to be photographed? I am as much in awe of that as your photographic technique.

    Hi Yuri, nice to meet you here !

    I have gazed upon that beautiful face many times, (sigh) but shortly after seeing her……… a loud ringing accompanied by horrible and insistent howling ensues. Then to my dismay, consciousness intrudes, raw understanding crashes down. The ringing, alas is the alarm clock, the horrible howling is the cat, demanding breakfast. A new day begins.

    clap.gif Yuri I love your work!
    Your portraits not only consist of great composition, lighting, all the theoretical fundamentals, but you capture a certain feeling and personality that in my opinion, is a wonderful God given gift.

    Your shots are truly inspiring.

    This is stunning to me. It looks like it has perfect studio lighting. I would aspire to doing this.

    Wow! I don't think they have light like that on our streets. At least not when I'm around. :cry

    Beautiful work as usual.
