This scenery was photographed on April 22, 2015. It’s the old Russian cemetery above an industrial (in the past) town in the southwestern part of Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia. The town is called Kadamjay (Kadamzhay), also known as Pulgon, 30 kilometers south of an ancient Uzbek city called Fergana (Fargona).
This is Aksu river photographed from one of its bridges in Kadamjay town in the south of Kyrgyzstan, one of the Central Asian countries. Another name of the river is Shohimardon-say (in Uzbek).
There was no snow for a long time here, in Smolensk region of Russia. Some days ago snow started to fall at last, and today here was a severe snowstorm, which I recorded with my cam leaning out of the window.
The mountain rises above the Central Asian town of Kadamzhay and is called Kitovka in Russian. The mountain was dubbed Kitovka by Russian settlers in the second half of the 20th century, when Kyrgyzstan was part of the USSR.
The sun sets on the opposite side of Mt Kitovka.
My friend Roman Gilmanov is a great English-Russian translator and photographer. He photographed this nice scorpion on March 8, 2014, in a Central Asian mountainous settlement called Kadamzhay, which is situated in Batken region of the southern part of Kyrgyzstan.
Usually most people in Russia are joyless and sullen, except when they are a bit tight or drunk 😀 . Just like this man for example, who was photographed by my little nephew in the midsummer this year.
