Forward to the past (vol.23). The way to SibAk - Swan Lake

in photography •  7 years ago  (edited)

Not so long ago I decided to take a walk with @irenmade to Agrarian University. It is located in a large park with, probably, the largest collection of different types of trees in Omsk.

The road to Agrarian ran past the "swan lake". It was formed in the fifties, when the shipyard began to build up territories along the Red Road and blocked the Old-country creek. As a result, the formed dam became popular with Omsk, as a place of rest and became known as "Lebedinka", because of the swans who settled here.

Well, passing this "sight" we could not not make a couple of photos, especially given that there are old views of this place. So there was a "ghost" of Lebedinka with Irene in the spotlight.

Swans from the pond flew away, for fifty years the pond was a little wild and few already remember that even in the forties, exactly on the site of this pond there were tram lines to, then, the Agricultural Institute.

Clearly, all the changes on this morph.
