Victory Day, Pt 8.

Posted by Matt Shalvatis Photography (Kiev, Ukraine) on 27 May 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

May 9th is the day the people in East Europe celebrate their victory over fascism and Nazi Germany. Being from the states, I figured it would be more than just a Memorial Day or Veterans Day, but didn't quite know what to expect. Here then are a few of my photos of Victory Day, with a bit of commentary on the side.
