Battle At F-Stop Ridge
Battle of photographers. Funny but sometimes in real life it looks exactly like this. :)
Beer mug
Just couldn’t help myself not to share this nice idea – beer mug. Just like coffee mug but just for beer. Just imagine yourself next day after party with great hangover coming to work and taking one (or more) mug of ice-cold beer. Perfect.
Author of idea is Russian student Ivan Maximov. He puts it this way:
This is the packaging design and re branding for the Mug Pub. Mug is a big chain of football pubs based in Moscow. This pub brews its own beer. It is a new concept for take away beer. Beer is filled into paper cups and a special sticker is put on the top for each to identify the different beers. The new cup combines the form of the traditional beer pint with the sustainability of recyclable paper cups.

Morning at Daugavgriva
Week ago one morning I decided to go for a skiing at the seaside. Not a very smart idea as the coast is all in ice and ther’s almost no snow. But the thing was worth it as morning was really beautiful. And luckily I got my camera with me. So hare are some pictures from cold winter morning at Daugavgriva.
