This is wonderful work. I wish Putin and those around him would get the message.

C'est violent -comme l'autre image- mais c'est la guerre qui est violente et tu ne fais que la dénoncer avec ces belles images.

Je ne comprends pas ce que tu veux dire, avec ou sans "belles" images, tu es aussi concerné, car l'Ukraine est à peine à environ 2166 km et 24 heures non seulement de chez nous, mais aussi de chez toi, et c'est ça qui me fait terriblement peur !!!

Ute, I've been away for a few weeks (due to health matters, and apartment construction matters) so I've missed a lot. I hate to skip over images of yours (even though I've seen them all), but I have no choice when I've been gone this long. I'll try to comment on a representative sampling of your images...
Your series on Ukraine has been powerful, heartfelt and touching. I'll comment on a few here. This image portrays the terrible ruins of war. And since you are European, you live in a continent that knew these ruins not so long ago. The aftermath of WWII was staggering, with whole cities razed to the ground, and long masses of refugees walking down the roads and highways of Europe. There was disease, death, homelessness, etc. It must be terrifying to see all-out war on the European continent once more...this time, from yet another tyrant who cares nothing for human life.
Your scene is a scene out of the apocalypse, the woman seems grounded by iron wings. the building is so badly damaged that the window frame stands naked (powerful sight), and there are clouds of dark dust behind it. From all we've seen, this is what many regions of the Ukraine look like. And the woman's face shows near hopelessness. If nuclear weapons weren't present, the rest of the world could stop Putin immediately. But nuclear weapons are all over Russia, so it's very hard to stop Putin directly. We hope that the sanctions will work, because the Ukrainians are going through hell. Very powerful image, among many you've posted since the war began.

Hello dear Mark, first of all welcome back, I hope that you are feeling a little better now, unfortunately there is no improvement in sight for me, rather the opposite, but I will continue here as long as I can. I am always so grateful to you for all your amazing comments because you don't just look at them superficially. From the few comments I still get (one person here made a big contribution to the fact that I get fewer and fewer visits, but those who shouldn't come anymore just let it be, I can do quite well without this unscrupulous and false rabble Life)! 😉
