The night is always interesting. During the day, you get used to seeing the environment in light with many details. Your attention is dispersed or even switched to an internal dialogue with yourself. You often don't notice where you are. Everything is familiar and your interest is dulled.

The night is another matter. Do you often have to walk at night? Maybe someone has such a habit or need. But there are few such people. Usually at night people sleep or sit at home in front of the computer like I am now. The Internet is very weak and I am writing a draft to try to publish this post in the afternoon or in the morning. But I got distracted from the night

That night I was in the center of Leningrad and slowly strolled among its beauty. Yes, the sensations at night are completely different. There is no sunlight and the city is illuminated from the inside. This changes the geometry of spaces, makes unexpected accents and sometimes causes contradictory emotions.

Gene memory stores information about the danger of the night when predators go hunting. One way or another, but at night a person is in an altered state of consciousness. Even if he doesn't understand it.

The only thing that upsets me in this whole story...street lighting temperature. Too much yellow and orange. But in the end it can be tolerated.

Notice how mysterious an ordinary city park becomes at night. It's not even a park, but just a small garden in front of the Main Admiralty. By the way, when I was studying there, we used to run here in the morning for physical exercises.

Rivers and canals also have their own night decoration. There are almost no people here and you feel the night itself more keenly.

And at parting, a bit of nocturnal abstraction and mysticism. This is my faithful friend Mr. Helios working again with the front window turned upside down. But this is another story of the mystical night.
