Eastern Europe

This is a wonderful thread, with excellent pictures. So good to see a part of the world I'm not familiar with. Thanks to you all. Keep the photos coming, please :)
 


Victory Day. Chisinau, Moldova. May 2008. A retired Soviet Air Force Lieutenant Colonel in parade uniform. A bit strange since the
Supreme Soviet had voted the USSR out of existence 17 years earlier.

Robert took the words out of my mouth. I much appreciate this thread, thanks for the great photos and interesting observations everyone!
 
In general, this area around there is about 70% of my picture in Poland

Yes, it is a great spot for streetscape photography. Only been there once in June 2018, but I certainly will return - some friends living there keep inviting me to come back.

Three from Kaliningrad.

Three from Kaliningrad.

Kaliningrad (former Konigsberg)

Triumphal Column


Old German houses


Dom Sovietov (“House of the Soviets), a pharaonic building, half-finished and never used. For some it is an examle of Brutalist Architecture, others refer to it as the worst case of post-war soviet architecture. In the photo the building is partially covered by large canvases related to the World 2018 Soccer Championship

There are many good photos in this thread. The first two seem very poignant to me.

Fantastic thread. Pan, this was a very good idea indeed.

This one could use the line "Always playing with that camera! Don't you see all this snow? If you want to eat tonight will you quit playing and replace that stupid camera with my shovel?

:D :D :D


Very nice thread with all those great photos there. Wish I could visit.
