Happy Victory Day Celebration (9th of May) to all of our friends in the Russian Federation, and across all the ex-soviet states
Victory Day or 9 May is celebrated in Russia and in most post-Soviet states to mark the capitulation of Nazi Germany to the Soviet Union in the Second World War (also known as the Great Patriotic War in these countries).
This one was taken 2 years ago during the celebration of the 66th Anniversary of Victory Day in Kazakhstan.
I was lucky to get access to the VIP and press area and get really close to the parades and celebrations. An interesting day which left me with over two thousand close up shots of the War Veterans, special guests and military personnel participating in the event.
