Excellent shots, Vlad. Very well executed. That’s a bit of a crowded ice-skating rink. And the way you captured the photos make the place look chaotic :D

Beautiful, Vladamir. Love the colors and movement. Will repeat what has already been said…impressionistic. Worthy of printing and framing (if you haven’t already done so)!

The orange cones create a static spacial frame through which the evanescent figures are woven. Very special photos.
