Thanks YT, Bob and Steady.
Although winter was beginning- it wasn't yet seriously cold. Plus, Russians are tough people about such things.
The girl was concentrating so much that she never noticed me.
Of course- as usual for me- since she didn't see me, I said nothing to her at all, just positioned myself, waited for something I liked, and took a shot.
Life for the average Russian has never been easy, and so their best writers, artists and composers of music often had to struggle under some hardships- especially early in their lives.
This girl was nicely dressed, so I presumed she lacked neither for clothing, shelter or food. Nor love from her family. If she and her family had no fears from the crumbling Communist regime, she likely had the same upbeat attitude of any normal, unspoiled, responsible teenage girl in the world- however rare they are becoming in the US .

So sorry to hear of Charlie's passing. He was a crackerjack travel photographer and had the opportunity to see wonderful parts of our world.

Russian, Ukrainian and other Slavic people have always been successful in the arts - writers (poetry and prose), artists, composers, musicians, filmmakers and many others.

It was in the nature of things that the children of that time were engaged in learning classical music, painting and sports if only it was not seen "pernicious influence of the West".

I'm sure it's very good when a country and government wants to grow a new generation in a positive atmosphere without the bad influence. But it is good only when it is really done for the good of people and country...
