Here at The Moscow Times photo blog "Russia, Exposed," the photographers will have free reign. The blog will showcase some of the work done by Igor and Vladimir while on assignment, as well as more offbeat images captured during their daily jaunts around Moscow. The first gallery is a set of portraits of major Russian political figures, mostly present but also a few past. (Click on one of the photos below to see the gallery.) Future series will include shots of Moscow institutions such as street dogs; those of city events, a few of which have already been featured in photo galleries on The Moscow Times web site; and whatever else the pair deems worthy of aiming their lenses at.
Russia and Moscow are rich in compelling images. Keep your eye on "Russia, Exposed" to catch a mix of the best captured by the staff of The Moscow Times.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
