Why not post the crowd pics instead of cherry picked photos? Circassians are fairer but their facial features are Caucasian and not European. They are probably closer to some North-Eastern Euro groups genetically and pehnotypically compared to Sicilians but overall the latter are clearly in one genetic group with most other Europeans unlike Adyghe.

...But Adyghe live in cold mountain environment so I suppose it's the reason their lighter skin than Sicilians.

They just have considerable Northern Euro admix and lack SW-Asian one but feature wise they're West Asians.

To be frank though, the second picture seems like it has a lot more exposure (brighter lighting/flash).

Circassians varies a lot in terms of look but overall Circassians looks whiter

Do they overlap with Georgians?

Yes, they do but they're both fairer and chinkier on average. They have less of those Middle Eastern looking people compared to Georgians and more quasi-Slavic ones. The difference is like between Greeks and Macedonians to put it roughly (of course not Cypriot Greeks)
