Holiday themes

Number One - The Women of the Baltic

I would like to say that I planned a series of themes to focus my photogrpahy, sadly it was really a case of looking back and realising that I had several images along similar lines.
The first is a series of images taken of the women of the Baltic, mostly but not exclusively, St Petersburg.

   In the Hermitage museum women watch over the artifacts and treasures. At one point our guide caught the sharp edge of one woman's tongue as one of the tourists sat on a windowsill. You really don't want to mess with these women,

In St Petersburg brides visit famous sites to have their photographs taken. This bride was in the park next to the Church of Spilled Blood.

OK so not exactly a woman but this little girl was playing with the playing with the pigeons in the middle of St Petersburg.

This young woman looked so out of place, one can only guess at her thoughts as she gazes through the gate.

The following images were taken inside a local market. Some funny looks coming my way meant I was taking very quick, from the hip type pics.
