DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
CHURCH
An Orthodox church here in Ulyanovsk. Looks almost like
a dollhouse...
|
 |
OLD ROAD
One of the old highways that lead down the Volga bank to
the bridge. Looks pretty deserted. Almost out of a Mad Max
movie.
|
 |
THE BRIDGE
Ulyanovsk, the bridge across the Volga. It used to be
forbidden to photo it. A strategically important object
in case of war...
|
 |
THE DOCKS
Around the docks in the port of Ulyanovsk.
|
 |
THE DOCKS-II
Another dock.
|
 |
NUCLEAR WINTER
In fact, just normal Ulyanovsk winter. It just looks a
little... joyless. Taken at the Volga bank.
|
 |
WINTER SUN
Taken right in front of the university I used to work for,
on the bank of the Sviyaga.
|
 |
REMEMBRANCE
The Anna Akhmatova Museum in St. Petersburg. Looks totally
taken care of, doesn't it? /sarcasm mode turned off
|
 |
PEBBLES
Just liked the way they glittered under the water. :-)
Skugareyevka, the river Tasholka.
|
 |
THE OLD MANSION
The old count's mansion in Skugareyevka.
|
 |
STANDING WATER
The pond in Skugareyevka. It's artificial, but it's old
and pretty sinister. And even has a couple of scary bedtime
stories associated with it.
|
 |
ANOTHER KIND OF FLOWER
A little grave on the bank of the pond in Skugareyevka.
When the herbs around are in bloom it might escape your
notice altogether. Two people turned to almost... nothing.
|
 |
STAIRWAY TO HELL
In fact, this is a stairway to the toilet rooms. But you
should have seen those toilet rooms - Hell pales in comparison!
:-) This was taken in the university that I gradtuated from.
|
 |
CITY SKY
And the birds in that sky look like anything but birds,
right. This is taken out of my window.
