Actually, he's in the 3rd photo too if you look hard enough.  If those girls in the 4th photo were photo'd at the party I'd sign up for that tour tomorrow.   :o

TG, speaking of photos, why don't you lighten up a bit ;)?

I am not sure what you mean Sandro.   My comment to DKMM was just what I said.  I almost need a magnifying glass to know I was in that photo.  If he had not called it to my attention I would never have spotted it.  He sure has better eyes than I do.

TG,

Sandro has a terrific, though not American, sense of humor.

He took the initiative to lighten the photo in your avatar so that it is clearer. That was all he meant. A touch of sarcasm.

Thank you Dan, Thank you Sandro.  Perhaps a little lighter would be better.   The original on that photo was so dark we almost had no faces but once I lighned us and darkened the blurred scene out the window it turned into my favorite photo from the last trip.  Three weeks from now I will be packing for more time together and perhaps I will return with a photo I like even better for my Avatar.  I apprecitate everything.

At your service, is this any better ? Actually, I was being photo-literal in my reference to lightness. Y'all always suspecting me of being deviously allusive >:( ;D.

Sandro,

I played with it a bit in photo shop.  Instead of lightening the whole photo I lightened the left side of our faces some and the whole photo some.  Does this look any better?

Dear Sandro, so as you were so much kind to offer your service I would like you to make the original of Turbot’s avatar to be perfect. Thank you in advance.

Vwrw (Jeez, that's hard to pronounce >:(), here's what I could do with my limited skills, the original photo is slightly out of focus. TG, your version is better than original, but still a bit dark. Maybe light from your RIGHT face side would be better, since that's in the dark.Anyway, it's YOUR avatar, so choose whatever alternative your prefer. Or should we start a poll on it ;D?

You do nice work Sandro.  I like the way you did it and will make the change a little later.  I have to run out for a while soon.  Thanks.

As you get away from the center this is what you will see circling all of Kiev. New hi-rises. Credit on home (flat) loans has come to Ukraine recently as well some goverment assisted new projects. As such many people are able to get into there own places.

I'm sure there are thousands of photos of St. Andrewsky that have been taken and are on the internet. I've probably taken 20 to 30 such photos of St. Andrewsky myself over the years and without a doubt this has to my favorite. Sometimes, if your lucky, you will catch the light just right.

On the Dnipper river, south of the Hotel Dnepropetrovsk about 3/4 mile, you will see a little river park recently built. Here is one of the art structures.
