- KaiUno, on 07/18/2008, -1/+9Sorry, somebody beat you to it. By 11 hours.

- poidh, on 07/18/2008, -7/+3I wish that site wouldn't use popunders and quite so many ***** adverts.

http://englishrussia.com/images/birds_3/52.jpg - Paranoidmarvin, on 07/18/2008, -5/+3The title should be "Breathtaking Aerial Views of Mother Russia"
Mother just makes it sound better - Aerandir, on 07/18/2008, -9/+7In Soviet Russia, MrBabyMan dupes YOU.
- piwy, on 07/18/2008, -1/+2You're doing it wrong.
- peterjmag, on 07/18/2008, -3/+8Mirror: http://www.peterjmags.com/birdseyerussia/
And no, I don't get any ad revenue from this mirror, just trying to test out a new webhost.- stukdog, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2How did you setup that mirror? (that's an honest question. I'd like to know how to do it.)
- BillE3, on 07/18/2008, -2/+5I have been there, it is an amazing country. With their new found freedom the people are open and friendly. Many speak English. Their history is long and varied.
- ZoomBoy, on 07/19/2008, -0/+2Was that a haiku?
- shadowmoose, on 07/18/2008, -2/+3Anyone else notice the river on a bridge over a river? Talk about a mind *****.
- vibrate, on 07/18/2008, -1/+0It's called an aqueduct; invented by the Romans. They are hardly unusual
- meestro, on 07/18/2008, -2/+3Reminds me of the sort of land Erik Estrada would sell on a 4am infomercial.
- pktgumby, on 07/18/2008, -6/+1Buried for misleading title, there were a few pics taken from the ground.
- dolphumous, on 07/18/2008, -5/+3In every one of those pics I see a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. screenshot.
- Galaxylander, on 07/18/2008, -8/+2Am I the only person who thinks gang violence and rivers of Vodka when they hear Russia?
- Millsee, on 07/19/2008, -1/+4Yes.
- s14sh3r, on 07/18/2008, -4/+1Get out of here, Stalker.
- OC73, on 07/18/2008, -8/+3Oh please. You can make North Korea or Zimbabwe look good from hundreds of feet up.
- demitio, on 07/18/2008, -4/+0Maybe im just being old school, but this ***** needs a 56k warning or something!
- BrendanSheehan, on 07/18/2008, -6/+1MrBabyMan is back with vengeance!
/joke - sassy343, on 07/18/2008, -5/+0This one is the best http://uploadingit.com/view/736021_tdzik
- tedrock, on 07/18/2008, -6/+2meh
- GraemeNorway, on 07/19/2008, -6/+2Nice, but IMO not really that breathtaking...
- bwmdiym, on 07/19/2008, -3/+1It reminds of growing up it looks a lot like Michigan
- Deputy_Dawg, on 07/19/2008, -6/+1No digg because one of the pictures is UPSIDE DOWN :-(
- gordonrp, on 07/19/2008, -0/+3Thumbnailed mirror for easier viewing: http://www.putpic.com/gallery/1568/5818017
no ads, links/credits back to source. - ZoomBoy, on 07/19/2008, -1/+2What's the story on that Eye of Sauron tower in the middle of the river? Are homeless people camped all over it?
- kozicka, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1I assume that the area around it was flooded (probably intentionally) for a dam etc and that was the only thing left.
I visited a similar place in Slovakia where the old town had been flooded to make way for a dam, and the only thing left was a church on a small island.

You can see the island here:

- booshack, on 07/19/2008, -1/+1What telescope is that?
- phreakinearl, on 07/19/2008, -3/+0dude, those are pictures from an airplane...hardly breathtaking...epic fail
- kozicka, on 07/19/2008, -0/+0Umm, from a helicopter actually if the 4 pics of one didnt give it away, and which part of "aerial" dont you understand??
- phillykid162, on 07/19/2008, -2/+5Was I the only one who clicked the "Russian Cheerleaders" link at the bottom?
- RusskiGuy, on 07/19/2008, -1/+2I didn't click it, but then I saw your comment and was gawking at them moments later. Russians do it better!

- mearse, on 07/19/2008, -0/+2I wish there were descriptions to go along with the pictures. Beautiful pics anyhow.
- CAisBacK, on 07/19/2008, -1/+3I hate the comment system in Digg, if you say they're great you get buried, if you say they suck you get buried, if you talk about something else you get buried, if you give a mirror you get buried, if you say something stupid you get buried, if you say something funny you get buried, wtf?
- XenophobicAlien, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1Buried
