    Pavel Filatov. Wild russia photography -
    siberian landscapes and ethnos

    These are portraits of Altai and Polar Ural nature. I'm writing "portraits" because every photo reflects something special, very personal for a certain landscape. To took a good portrait, you need a talent - see photo portraits of a making up Altaic girl or an aiming bowman in Ethnos section. But what about a portrait of a mountain or starry sky, a portrait of a lake or a flower? Here is a sphere of real art. Photos taken by Pavel Filatov - exactly such portraits.

    BAIKAL LAKE
    Baikal Lake is located in the south-east of Siberia (Russia). This is the deepest (1620 m), the oldest (geological age - about 25 mln. years) and the most voluminous fresh lake in the world. The lake keeps 1/5 part of the whole world resources of fresh water. About 300 rivers flows into Baikal but only one - Angara flows out. Nature of the lake is also unique.
