Beauty and the Beast.

in cityscapephotography •  6 years ago  (edited)

Trying to find some beauty in ugly corners of megalopolis. Normally Saint-Petersburg is very beautiful and inspiring city, with a lot of palaces and monuments, great architecture and flying bridges. But in some parts outside of the center, Saint-Petersburg has this Grey and creepy Soviet look.

I would say here Saint-P shows his Leningrad's face. For me this photos looks more like a drawing, my lens is not the best one for this light, and sometimes it turns photos to something else. I made some experiments with the colors a little, to have more of this painting effect.  Now it's look like comics for me. 

We had a really nice boat trip with my friends in this summer while I was visit my home town first time in last 5 years. Stories about it you can read here, if you are interested.

thanks dude

your post always intrigue, am really hunger for a trip. I'll need it. really your posts have shown me some breathe taking sites.

thanks man.. i hope to see pics from your travel soon

Yes, the gray building of 1970-80 years of the Soviet Union is not a masterpiece of architecture, but it is also architecture, urban planning .... Soviet architects tried to do something interesting, although they did not have the opportunity - they were severely limited in money for construction. I think Ipumba caught this face and showed it with color.

i didn't say it's not architecture, it is totally! And it's powerful! Looks Different than you imagine Saint-P normally. Looks like a space station, or base of Terranos from one famous computer game.

This is what I tried to say, Ipumba, you have a master's eye and a master's hand - you saw it and showed it!

In fact, when looking at the direction of the pocket, it is a dark city.

were you there? its really depense..
