Outside of every place you go to are these old grandma's and grandpa's who are selling anything they can to make a few roubles to be able to live. Here's a few of them that I captured this past saturday...

What a typical Russian profile.

I like black and white, but I also like the color...

This last lady was really cute, they thought I was taking photos for a newspaper, and she started talking to me, and when I said that I was from America, she said, "Is that the same place as Paraguay? I have a brother in Paraguay, maybe you know him... What's your name?" I said, "Mike" She responded "That's the same as Miguel right? That's his first name, maybe you have the same last name too..." She was obviously not all there, but was willing to do what it took to earn a living for herself.
Mike, I so enjoy your studies in people. These are so lovely. So glad that you posted the lady in both B&W and colour. She's so sweet and what a colourful scarf!
Since I am not a people-picture-taking photographer, I love these photos! So much story in those faces. Thank you, Mike!
Wonderful photo's. I do so enjoy the pictures that you post. The subjects are always interesting.
Mike: Wonderful photos of those precious people!!
