Microdistrict Flax Factory in Vologda (or Paklya (tow) in the common people), I think I already know the whole length and breadth. But it's one thing to be familiar with the area, and another to capture it. Only in Vologda I studied and at the same time captured the courtyard spaces. Before that, I had a slightly different principle: to study again what has long been studied with the help of a camera and metaphysical sensations.
Now I know what local residents call many neighborhoods in the city.
This is much more interesting than the 1st, 2nd ... 5th, Center and the like triviality.
This microdistrict is interesting in that it has a height difference and water bodies.
The difference in elevation is quite insignificant.
And the water body is the small river Evkovka and the pond, which serve as the border between the microdistricts.
This microdistrict is considered the South-Eastern outskirts of the city.
The housing stock here is very diverse: there are both multi-storey new buildings, and Khrushchev Era houses, panels, Stalin Era houses and two-story barracks, not only of the apartment type, but also of the corridor type.
Many courtyards can be walked through, which makes them attractive.
Attractiveness doesn't always have to be external, although most people only judge by the cover.
I wrote about the barracks of this microdistrict (about the dilapidated housing) for a long time, it remains to go through the courtyard spaces.
And I have already captured some of the courtyard spaces.
It's just that now, or rather for a long time, I am focusing on a detailed study of the area.
I went through many places in an introductory manner immediately after moving to Vologda, so sometimes it seems to me that everything has already been re-shot.
But it only seems...
