This weeks image was captured on cold and snowy day in April 2007. It was many years since I first visited Russia back in 1994. I noticed considerable changes to the country during the second visit, but the one thing that stood out most, was the cost of traveling there. Moscow has now become incredibly expensive, and is ranked among the most expensive cities in the world.
The image captures many of Moscow’s most famous land marks. St Basil’s Cathedral on the left hand side, and the towers that line the impenetrable walls of the Kremlin on the right. Last but not least is Lenin’s tomb in the center of the image, being guarded by a lonely Russian police officer.
