All pictures taken by me. I present some pics I took thru the last week during my walks at the central streets of St.Petersburg.
The way this girl was dressed in Full-Pink, and the situation the pigeon was patiently awaiting for his part, these two things both clicked attracted my eye. Sadly, I took only two blind shots. And both turned out over-exposed -- you cant even say she is pink...
Little square near the local McDack palace - pretty packed.
I explored two yards on that day, before going home after my office duties were finished. And it was a lucky try - I spotted a very intresting yard, full of surprises. Most of my art finds I already have described in my previous post here.
Again, my eye was attracted by a great shadow here. When I came closer, I noticed I was not the 1st one capturing the beauty - there was another guy pointing his iphone at it, standing in a characteristic pose. Funny coincidence!
The yards of St.Petersburg is a separate field.. immense fild! They live their own life, full of surpises, encounters, and nice details... the more you walk, the more you discover, more stories you want to tell!
The next yard (exact address is: Leo Tolstoy str, 5) had a nice waste worth examining a lot.
No, I dont mean I explored the certain trash bins full of great items, no, dont get me that way! But the location had some very cool artsy installments.
The sticker is off, finally. / Такая незатейливая, но смешная история.
Look at the door I found -- a very cool artsy-hand-decorated edition. See, I am a fan of intresting looking doors, I grow a collection of images and always take a picture when I see a unique edition of any kind. This one is extremely cool - I consider it to be an attempt to resist the ugly environment, an attempt to saturate the gray everyday life with color.
It has the wall decorated with some old maps used prints. Creative way to recycle old papers, what should I say here! Imagine: this (most creative) spot of the yard is actually the waste containers area, hehe.
Perhaps, thats enaf for me.
This is a small station for the exchange of unnecessary shoes and clothes.
Это небольшая станция по обмену ненужных вещей - обуви и одежды.
I still have more photos than the words to describe this. Damn!...
And two last pict to finish my visual story -- I took them already at the tube. Three persong were sitting in the wagon right behind me, each was extremely different, attractive ancd beautiful in their own way. Some serious hippie-esque boy in red self-hand-decorated coat (which looked like it is 50+ years old and was found at the waste), heavily covered with curious tattoes; a long-haired golden boy completely dissolved in his smartphone, and a real Chinese girl listening music in her iphone, very tiny, fragile and dressed in such a splendid way, all pale lilac.
I could not but press the trigger...
Thanks for walking with mee, see you next time! / Надеюсь, вам было приятно прогуляться со мной по улицам Петербурга. Check my other posts from St.Petersburg at the Pinmapple world map
