Anne Geddes Work: Twins and Triplets

At home in Moscow we have a huge collection of Anne Geddes images. They were sold as postcards in Moscow, and my mother and I bought them, thus creating a lovely selection on Anne’s work. Renowned for her skillful and tender photographs of children, Geddes imaginatively commemorates the beautiful moments of childhood, when we are at our most sincere, open, and uninhibited. I have previously shown a few of her images on the blog, and now I follow it up with images of twins and triplets in animal outfits.

And here is the video of Anne introducing her new photographs, for which she’s teamed up with Woolmark Group. The great news is that Anne also has a blog, so make sure you check it for updates.

Love Locks – A Recent Russian Wedding Tradition

When I returned to Moscow nearly a year ago, I was surprised to eventually discover that one of the bridges that is very popular with newlyweds has acquired this lovely sculpture (left). Little did I know that the tree you can see through the ring is made of… locks. This tradition sees couples sign the lock with their names and hand it on a tree, a suitable structure, or a bridge. This September I saw locks adorning the bridge in Yekaterinburg.
