Chairman: Ladies and Gentlemen. I think there has come time to sum up.
Show Participants and Spectators: Oh. My God. Why? We have just begun. Where are you going in such a hurry? We still had time to show (to look) almost nothing. And we have not declared our sponsors at all, etc.
Chairman: Well, well. All right. Show goes on.

Sponsors.
Primary sponsor of the Fashion Show is Sea Port (about 8 km from Odessa) which called by people "Fish Port". In Soviet period the great fishing-boat flotilla was located here. Then there a ferry-boat complex was built near (on the territory of) the Fish Port also cargo sea shipping between the USSR, Bulgaria and Romania was organized.
Just after disintegration of the USSR the flotilla was plundered. Now only ferry-lines work to Istanbul (Turkey) and to Poti (Georgia). Clearly, that present freight traffics are very small in comparison with former.
The port is constructed in estuary of "Dry" Liman. The shallow estuary is partitioned off by a dam in the middle of which it is arranged the pontoon drawbridge.
On original shot you can see old booths with swing mechanisms.
On workshop #1 the road on a dam to the drawbridge is represented.
On workshop #2 you can see a part of port water area adjoining a dam also a carriage-entrance to the territory of the port.

Few words about Chairman.
I managed to take few shots of this gentleman (I hope this swan is really gentleman (at least a male :) ). This was a first shot taken at portrait camera orientation. Next shots were taken at horizontal camera orientation and reflect entire image of the swan. Only on first shot the tips of wings were cut (I had no time to frame first shot correctly). However, I have preferred this shot and created effect by this phenomenon. This effect demonstrates and underlines the huge width of swan wings better then others and posture of the wings (their strong horizontal position) is more impressive (for my taste).
Chairman: I thank all of you, dear TN-members, for visiting our Show and invite you to next presentations.
Alex99: What can I add? Only that Chairman is quite right. |
