Real collecting happens very slowly and in stages. There are collectors who buy something in large quantities or even buy an entire collection at once, but in this case the very process of searching and

There's something attractive about pre-storm clouds – their curly forms makes any picture look interesting. In fact, these are very dense and voluminous cumulus clouds, which then smoothly turn into rain

I am beginning to understand why Sokolsky district of the Vologda region attracts me so much – it contains an extensive river network, many fields, meadows, marshes and dugouts. Sukhona is the largest

Three weeks ago, I wrote that I was disconnected from everything and I didn't want to take pictures of anything. I have passed this peak of the "bottom", or dead center, and I feel like a slow

How the rain started. There was a beautiful light... you saw it in the previous post about Peter from above. And on the other side was a rain cloud. The hotel's corridors have windows on all four sides.

Due to the fact that I was not in the best of moods and experienced not the brightest emotions, it is very difficult to tell about my walks in a voluminous way. As in all my previous visits to St. Petersburg,

I visit St. Petersburg about once a year, and this is an economic forum. Also, in different years, I have been on different waves and frequencies that relate to creativity in photography. My research has

When I lived in Veliky Ustyug and photographed this city, it was difficult for me to go beyond the boundaries and shoot freely in any other place. There were sometimes moments when I would relax somewhere

For eight years on this platform, a lot of words have been said in my posts about shooting moonrise and moonset. There were probably hundreds of photographs of the moon in its various phases. I've studied

The village of Krasny Bor is located in the Totemsky district of the Vologda region on the Vozhbal River. There is a cellar town with a large number of dugouts. I've marked this place on the map for a

I thought for a long time about what to write and still came up with the idea of reflecting everyday life with the help of photography. I often see posts about daily life in different parts of the country

Cyclicity and repeatability are, on the one hand, good things – there is plot predictability and you can make something even better. But the most interesting thing is to find new topics. The first time

If I have to choose between an abnormally hot summer and a rainy one, I'll choose the latter. It will be better both in terms of the picture and the physical sensations. I can't stay in extreme heat for

Last year, for the first time, I paid close attention to clouds and began photographing as a fact, that is, without reference to objects and the landscape. I used to photograph the sky, but these were

There is one interesting place in the village of Markovskoye – it is a system of small ponds with an island and bridges. But unfortunately, it's all in a neglected state... When I first came here...not

Right now, for some reason, I wanted an autumn foggy morning - there's something very atmospheric about it...smells, coolness, notes of sadness... Each season has its own vibe in the early morning. I even
