The building of Russian Orthodox Church in Florence was designed by two architects Preobrashenskij and Boccini and looks similar in appearance with the St Basil’s cathedral in Moscow.

The interior of the Russian Orthodox Church in Florence (Via Leone) is richly decorated with mural paintings in Byzantine eclecticism style. They are very impressive and contribute to the diversity of the heritage diversity in the motherland of Renaissance – the city of Florence.

It was really great to enjoy a performance of a flamenco group from Malaga on the main city square of Munich.

I thought this was rather annoying at the time of the picture because it was making the traffic move slowly and it was hot, but now looking back I think it’s rather funny and fair to allow everbody on the road with their own unique form of transportation.

I simply must applaud the genius of creating a scarecrow with a volleyball as a head.

Indonesia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. There’s a very unique religion practiced there, Dharma Hinduism which is, very basically, a mix of Hinduism and Buddhism with other beliefs in there as well. Essentially the belief is that of natural justice and harmony.

I put this picture up because for me it reminds me of how much respect the animal trackers had for this dangerous creatures. With those horns and weighing several hundred pounds you can see why these beasts are kept clear of.

Little porcelain figures, mostly angels you can see while walking the Charles Bridge in Prague. This small souvenirs with wings, hanged together affects you calming.

Angel is anthropomorphic figure. Winged forms intended to transmit the word of God to humankind. Angels personify divine will and are the messengers of God.

Leopard Hunting

This picture is in Pretoria, South Africa and leopards are always a treat to see because they normally sleep in the trees during the day. This one however was a recent mother and had to find food for her cubs. It’s amazing that there are still so many people that live to see creatures and beautiful landscapes like the ones that exist in Africa.

Himalayan Rice Patties

These patties I saw lined along the Himalayas were an amazing feat, I think. This may not be a display of clothes, foods, and art, but it is a depiction of how life is dictated by their environment.
