The country is also Georgia, which although occupied by Russia both during the Monarchy and Soviet rain is a still it's own country. :) Hi,

Thank you for posting these. And what an exciting color process that makes these photos look like hyper-realist paintings, and a window into the past. One of my grandmothers immigrated from what is now Azerbaijan in the early 1920s. We don't have any photos from the old country, and these sparked my imagination. A lot of people still wear turbans without irony, and I often see them accessorized with a bluetooth. What gorgeous photos! Thank you for posting these.

Today's photos of Russian denizens is amazing. The b/w set from Olya Ivanova made my heart sing as well. I too have a bit of an obsession w/Russia and her people. Thank you. KT Alison,
