Unlike Google Maps, Russia's Yandex Карты is much more tourist friendly in that it does not blur your face away when you have been caught on camera! Yandex does not seem to uphold an evenly strict privacy policy as Google is imposed to do. A big help, as it assists me in taking touristic snapshots wherever I go.

L'viv, Ukraine. August, 2010.  It's a sunny morning in L'viv, the sun has just touched the streets.

A bus (marshrutka) is heading this way.

Well, would you look at that! That's me looking straight at the camera.

You can view the map of my location, click the binoculars button (Панорамы) on the top right, and then click on the street to make it happen. Or go straight to me on street level.
