Sunrise

It's hard to review all this on my own and resist the temptation to share some of it with you!

Amongst the images I have kept in my mind during the whole trip, there was this spectacular sunrise on the Baikal lake... we had been up all night, starting with a bonfire and a bit of vodka to keep us warm, then later chatting by the stove..
when we began to see the sky turn to a lighter shade of blue, we went out for a walk by the lake.. it was freezing cold and it was hard just to keep my hands on my camera... but what a sight!

poor little Tatiana was walking around in her slippers, wrapped up in her bright orange hood and a blanket to keep from freezing.. i thought of using my fisheye lens and a bit of fill-in flash to add to the surreal atmosphere!
