  1. Real journalism is not dead, thank you for showing us great work in an unusual part of the world.

  3. Great insights. Thanks

  4. Beautifully observed work with a warm commentary. Thanks, great stuff Seamus.

    • @John Easterby, oh yahhhhhhhhhhhhh

  5. Nice work. Great to hear the Irish accent!

  6. Very nice indeed. As a Russian I’m quite glad he didn’t follow the overwalked path of stereotypical “matrioshkas bears vodka lenin busts” type of photographs. Well, almost.

  7. This is one of the things I really love about the Internet – the ability to look at great photos and to hear some behind the scenes experience. Thank you!

  8. As someone who has been there & knows the language (but not Russian, like Mitja), I think he’s done pretty well. Interesting observations, and different than most of the ones I see from westerners. His observation of China (in that region) was spot-on, and you can really see his growth.

    On the other hand, there’s so much more to that region, it looks like he missed a huge amount, too…

  9. I was fortunate enough to see some of these photos in an exhibition at the Host gallery in London recently; the prints were stunning and it’s great to hear a little of the back-story here.
