Sometimes we should become tourists in our own cit Sometimes we should become tourists in our own city and look at our native place from a different point of view. It may be very surprising and amazing.
⠀
I used to walk a lot in my city. Seemed I knew it quite well. Same views, same monuments, buildings etc.
⠀
And then I got on a short boat tour. And I saw the familiar things differently.  And they were beautiful. Newly beautiful.
⠀
Maybe any day I will get an opportunity to look at my city from the air. Maybe... What is not possible today? We just need to wish...

😯HOW RUSSIAN BROTHERS FROM YAROSLAVL REGION CON 😯HOW RUSSIAN BROTHERS FROM YAROSLAVL REGION CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF HOLLYWOOD FILM INDUSTRY
⠀
I heard this story long ago but didn't remember the details well. So I've googled it and here's what I've found out. In brief:
⠀
After the death of Marcus Loew, studio chief of "Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer", in 1927, the control over his entertainment empire went to Schenck brothers, Joseph and Nicholas.
⠀
Their family lived in Rybinsk, a small town in Yaroslavl region (Russia). Joseph was born in 1876, and Nicholas - in 1880. In July 1892 the family moved to New York City.
⠀
Eventually, the brothers got into the entertainment business. They bought two cinema theatres and worked together with Marcus Loews.
⠀
Schenck brothers are known to be founder fathers of the American Film Industry. They got success thanks to adopting a studio system. It helped them to produce more films and to attract many film talents, who were turned into stars.

MY CITY HAS BECOME A DUCK HARBOUR IN TWO YEARS ⠀ MY CITY HAS BECOME A DUCK HARBOUR IN TWO YEARS
⠀
I've never seen so many ducks in Yaroslavl before. But this summer (now it's become last) ducks were everywhere along the river banks and even walking on the city beach.
⠀
It was really amusing watching them. And they were very human-friendly, not afraid of people at all. I guess this is because everyone have been feeding them with cookies and bread crumbs all the time.
⠀
But there is one negative point in such a friendship. Last winter there were cases when these birds didn't leave for warmer places and got frozen in the lake 😞 Some were rescued but some were not...

VolGanga is the confluence of two great rivers: Volga in Russia and Ganga in India. We appreciate the world's cultural variety. Religions maybe different, skin colour maybe different, languages maybe different. But we are the people, all united by this variety.
