#292 My Trans-Siberian Journey (3) 🚂 - Ural Summer Portraits 西伯利亚之旅 —— 乌拉尔的夏天

Yekaterinburg of Russia is my second stop during the Trans-Siberian train journey. Here are some portraits I shot in that region. They are my entries for the @portraitcontest Week 90 themed SUMMER.

When I saw this keyword, the image of a happy woman in a flowery dress immediately popped up in my mind, as she was shouting "I love summer!" when I took the photo for her.

This sweet girl in the first photo was my host in Yekaterinburg, and together we visited a forest nearby. Living in a place with a long harsh winter, she was extremely happy getting close to the Ural nature on a warm sunny day. She just couldn't stop singing and dancing all the time. :)

When I'm going down the memory lane to my Trans-Siberian journey, moments like this started to replay. They are unforgettable because of these lovely people I met on the way.

My Trans-Siberian Journey (1) - By the Moscow River | 西伯利亚之旅 —— 启程 + 河岸黄昏

My Trans-Siberian Journey (2) - Boat Tour on the Moscow River | 西伯利亚之旅 —— 泛舟莫斯科河

人像摄影活动这周的主题是“夏天”，一看到这个关键词，我的脑海中就闪现出一位穿着花裙子、雀跃大喊着“我爱夏天”的姑娘。

她是我西伯利亚之旅第二站 —— 叶卡捷琳堡的当地host，一个乐观自信、活泼开朗、人见人爱、花见花开的妹纸。;)

我们一起去城市附近乌拉尔山区的森林里玩耍。她一路上都在奔跑跳跃，不住地大喊：“夏天真美好啊~ 我爱夏天！” 每年都要熬过西伯利亚式漫长的寒冬，可以想见她对这短暂而温暖的夏天是有多期待和眷念。我也被她的兴奋所感染，给她拍下了很多快乐的瞬间。

每次回想起自己漫长而美妙的穿越西伯利亚火车之旅，这些难忘的瞬间就会一幕幕在脑子里回放。夏天的乌拉尔森林风景很美吗？说实话，我觉得并没有什么特别，而最难忘的，却总是这些旅途中遇到的鲜活可爱的人们。
