Here are the cropped headshot photos of the Estonian and Latvian women's and men's teams in the 2019 CEV European Volleyball Championship (https://www.cev.eu/Competition-Area/competition.aspx?ID=1053&PID=1578). Lithuania did not participate in either the men's or women's tournament.

Below are also morphs of the teams. I didn't attempt to exclude photos of foreign players.

I think the morphs look different largely because of differences in lighting, or because of differences in the angle, distance, or focal length of the camera.

I don't know if she's an ethnic Latvian, but the Latvian women's team has one player with a crazy nose (https://www.cev.eu/Competition-Area/PlayerDetails.aspx?TeamID=10875&PlayerID=33382&ID=1053):

Dude, you don't look like a Finn. I'm sure you also believe in Veles and Perun

Crazy how much lighter Estonians are to Latvians when they're right beside eachother.

I think individual headshot photos are better than group photos, or at least you can usually make higher-quality morphs out of them.

The headshot photos on the website of CEV (Confédération Européenne de Volleyball) are pretty bad, because they are not taken under standardized conditions, so that even photos of different players within the same team come from different sources, and some of the photos are really low-quality.

Here's sources for higher-quality headshot photos that are taken under more standardized conditions:

You mean "look" as in "seem"? I don't think you know what I look like, because the last time I posted a picture of myself online was about 8 years ago.

The Baltic people are the most blondest of them (especially Estonians), many NE Euro types.

The Hungarians in group, darker haired and more Central-East Euro types. The Romanians are similar, but darker than us.

The Moldavian set similar to Romanian, but bit lighter and more East Slavic shifted.

You could have include the Albanians, Kosovars and Greeks, but not problem! :)

They are part of the Southern European thread! :)

Abolina, Dolotova, Iskorostenska, Hrapane, Levinska, Mihelsone, Morozova, Racina, Ragozina, Strazdina - big doubt that they are ethnic latvians ;-)
