I wanted to capture the views of the night Backwater five years ago, when I was fascinated by the courtyard spaces, but I never got to this place. At that time, the territory of the backwater had not yet been improved.
Now there is a public space called Zatonovsky Bereg (The Backwater shore).
Actually, the word backwater is familiar to me from childhood, since there was also a backwater in my city, where real ships and barges are still standing.
The backwater in Vologda does not look at all like a place for ships to park.
It looks like a lake or a bay.
Previously, there were no high-rise buildings here, all of them were built very recently.
I've been living in Vologda for so long that I can already say, "I remember how it used to be."
And it used to be worse – everything looked like a wasteland, now it's much better here.
The only place that looks like a backwater for ships is not located in the backwater, but on the banks of the Vologda River.
