BIOI was born in Russia and lived in S. Petersburg for 60 years. Most of my career spent teaching at the Marine Engineering University. Since 2000 have been living in Regensburg (Germany) with my wife and daughter. I began taking pictures in 2003 and almost all my photos have been taken around Regensburg. Music and long walks in nature are my pet likes.
Have joined Rendero in 2003 and have met a lot of wonderful people here. Allways enjoy the beautiful works by so many excellent artists and have got lots of inspiration by theirs works.

Many congratulations, Valentin. This looks like a closing shot from a late 1950's 'Cold War' spy movie. Very classy indeed. It would also stimulate a scenarion / novelette for more creative writers. It could almost be a perfect render. You should be proud of this work. Thank you for sharing this version with us. Regards, John.
