Sunrise From The Plane

My early morning flight took off into the sunrise, and I couldn't resist sneaking a few shots through the plane window as we soared over the clouds.

Around Kiev

Some photos of various places around Kiev, captioned when I can remember what they were.

The Monastery

Some photos from the enormous Monastery grounds. There are also a range of underground passages, which a monk seeking solitude dug.
