Decorated city

To see all details. St.Petersburg  is a decorated city, especially the museums,cathedrals, palaces, houses facades, statues everywhere, fountains, even in the less centered areas.

The ( French/italian) Baroque style is the "king"( also Rococo)...A lot of decorated elements, gold ,and artistic load. An example.( the colored version as well.)

Thanks for viewing.

Please read preface.Thanks

Technically perfect! The same comment as on the other one I know, ha!

Pnina, it's stunning to me how much detail this piece has, and I wonder about how much time it took to make. Wonderful perspective.

    It soooooo ...nice. I love it!

 

 

Such a detailed richly decorated city, it is difficult to epitomise, but I think you have done a great job here, and the colour version is excellent also.

Alf

Liz, we did not have a lot of time , but as I develope my seeing ,I try with  my compositions to  "catch" the essence.

Alf, it is impossible to transfer all the richness of the city, But I will try slowly to give my friends and visitor a glimpse......

Gunnar, it is one corner only... There are many! Thanks for liking the silver tones,and your feedback.

Pnina, each line and curve in St.Petersburg are soaked in history,art,tradition and Beauty. Very good cropping,exposure,DOF and tonal contrast. What lens have used?

Spectaular detail, Pnina.
