Introduction

For as long as I can remember, this kid from Manhattan with absolutely no Russian ancestry was told, "Russia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma." So for whatever reason, I decided to take my photojournalistic skills on an unescorted seven-day trip to Moscow and St. Petersburg, arguably the historical and cultural heart and soul of Russia.

My Perspective

Despite what you've been led to believe–and at the risk of the FBI calling me a dual agent–Russia IS NOT a politically-repressed country of disgruntled people surviving on a daily diet of vodka and potatoes. Russians are a proud, engaging, curious people, working their way through a complex cultural and economic transition.
