Musician in Kiev Subway

I recently had the opportunity to visit Ukraine and spent over a week with family and friends in Obukhiv, Kiev and Lviv.  Although it was a family trip, the opportunity for great photography was unlimited!  The amazing thing about going to a foreign country is not only to experience the people, culture, food, and the famous places a country has to offer, but also to experience the unique things that most people in that country take for granted.  it is always an experience of discovery to notice and explore the smaller details that might escape you if you are only concentrating on the amazing landscapes, monumental statues, enormous buildings and lavish churches.  Phones and phone booths (where they still exist) always seem to be very unique for example.

Ukraine was an experience that I absolutely would love to repeat.  There are so many more photos waiting to be taken and so many more cities and streets to explore.
