Snopchenko quoting Kant in support of Boris' photography! Wow! That is a serious compliment! And well deserved, too, IMHO.
Well, I'm glad to find that something has stuck in my head from my University days.
If only it had been the course of photography... actually, no, it wouldn't have made a mediocre photographer into one of Boris's calibre, so I might not have bothered anyway.

Absolutely sublime images. I don't think I have seen so many excellent landscape shots at once. I don't see many images that I would like to see printed really big, but all of these would work. I mean 20x30 or 40x60. Just amazing work and a great eye for composition. As many others have said there are too many great shots to cull it down to a few, without spending more time with them and seeing them bigger. However, thanks so much for sharing and shivering for us. Some of them make you feel the cold and desolation. Others are quiet and peaceful.Nice emotional mix.
Bravo amazing work. jim

Boris, do you mind if I save some of these pictures - actually, scratch that, all of 'em - and use them as desktop wallpaper? I might add that I miss the days when I had two monitors - apart from this setup being very convenient in itself, I could have just set one of these images as a wallpaper, minimized all the windows and had a beautiful piece of scenery to light up my day.

Great shots, Boris! Congrats on a successful shoot.
Choosing only one is difficult, but 25 is quite stunning and well composed.
My only critique is to be slightly more selective in editing, i.e. one horse shot, instead of multiples. I know it's hard when all are so good, and sometimes it's just a coin flip.
Great job!

Snopchenko, if you like, I can send you some of my images in larger sizes, for example full HD or whatever you need. Just send me a PM with the image # and the numbers of pixel (horizontal) you need.

Thanks Gunzorro!
I was thinking about posting just one horse image (the first one), but I thought that the other two images give a good impression of the close focus rendering of the 21mm ZF.2 stopped down which could be interesting for some people here on the alt forum. But maybe it would have been better to post the other two images in the ZF/ZE thread.

That's what I do, salt them in various forums and threads! That way, readers can skip if they want, or view for a broader experience.
