The sun is already setting, but it's still high enough to illuminate these amazing reflections in the puddles. Every time, I'm captivated by how an entire world turns upside down in the puddles.

This mighty poplar, all in gold, seemed to stand here forever, preserving in its leaves memories of many seasons. The afternoon sun flooded the field with such warm light that one just wanted to stand and absorb this tranquility. The sky was…boddhisattva in # photography • 2 days ago • 1 min readUnder those Saint Petersburg cloudsIt was one of those autumn days. Grey, a bit chilly, but you just had to be out. Walking along the Neva, this view always pulls you in. The Peter and Paul fortress, just standing strong against those dramatic clouds. I really liked how the black and white made everything feel even more intense here. The water below was choppy, moving fast. Had to…boddhisattva in # photography • 3 days ago • 1 min readA walk across autumn's thresholdEach step on these wooden planks echoed with a peculiar resonance on this overcast day. The clouds overhead seemed so dense, almost tangible, as if promising imminent rain. The autumn gold of the trees on both sides of the bridge glowed particularly brightly against the gray sky. I have always loved this old suspension bridge; its structure…boddhisattva in Magical Sun & Sky • 4 days ago • 1 min readJust watching the light goJust ended up by the gulf that day. Wasn't really planning on it, but the path just led me here. The air felt so crisp, like proper autumn. Could even smell that mix of sea and something else from the trees further back. It's a nice smell. Saw a few gulls, flying low, almost touching the water, catching the very last bit of light. Waves were just…boddhisattva in # photography • 5 days ago • 1 min readRiver's quiet autumn gazeAutumn walks always give such peace, especially when you get to the water. That day looking at this river reflecting the sky and banks, I felt time slowing down. Dry grass stems at the very edge, almost submerged in water, remind of summer gone, but green still holds on in places. Trees on the other side have already begun their autumn attire…boddhisattva in # photography • 6 days ago • 1 min readA St. Petersburg moment under the archI remember standing here, just watching the clouds roll in. This arch, it sort of framed everything, made it feel a bit more enclosed, a secret view. Then you see the spire, always there, no matter how grey the sky gets, just piercing it. The water below, dark, it just reflected whatever mood the sky had. Even a bird, tiny, flew through that…boddhisattva in # photography • 7 days ago • 1 min readSunlight through the autumn birchesEvery year I wait for this moment when the town puts on its golden attire. Walks along these streets always take me back to the past, to those days when the leaves seemed even brighter and the days longer.

I love how these rays pick…boddhisattva in # photography • 8 days ago • 1 min readA stone in the river, clouds above usLast autumn, during one of my walks through my hometown, I stumbled upon this view. The sky was covered with heavy clouds, but some amazing light broke through them. The river carried its waters slowly, reflecting all this majestic sky. In the distance, silhouettes of people were barely visible on the bridge, as if they were floating above the…boddhisattva in # photography • 9 days ago • 1 min readJust walkingSometimes I just like to walk, you know, no real plan, especially when autumn starts creeping in. Saint-Petersburg, it has these spots. Places where the city's age really shows, but still feels so alive. Like this gate, it always makes me pause a bit. The old pillars, the ironwork, and those big trees behind. It’s like stepping into a different…boddhisattva in # photography • 10 days ago • 1 min readBlue mirror of the silent riverI remember that cool autumn day when the air was so clear that even breathing felt a bit loud. I was just walking along the shore and suddenly froze at this unbelievable blue poured overhead and right under my feet. The trees had almost shed their leaves, lining up along the opposite side like a thin lace wall. The water stood absolutely still…boddhisattva in Magical Sun & Sky • 11 days ago • 1 min readSunset calm by the shorePerhaps this is one of those walks when time slows down. Every autumn evening brings with it such a special, golden mood. I stood by the water, and everything around seemed frozen in amber.

The sky was burning, and its reflection in the river repeated every…boddhisattva in # photography • 12 days ago • 1 min readThe quiet hum of an autumn morningSometimes on these autumn walks, you just have to stop. The air gets so crisp, you can almost taste it. And then you look up, and the sky, it's just doing its own thing. All these little clouds, like a million tiny ships sailing across the blue. The sun, it was really low, almost blinding off the water, making everything glow in a weird…boddhisattva in # photography • 13 days ago • 1 min readAutumn's quiet reflectionHow I love these autumn walks. The river that day was especially pensive, as if absorbing all the shades of the sky. Dark clouds on the horizon promised a change in weather, but for now they only add drama to this picture. I look ed at the water and saw a precise reflection of the clouds, as if the world has turned upside down. On the bank, among…boddhisattva in # photography • 14 days ago • 1 min readAutumn reflection by the waterI remember how on that autumn afternoon everything around fell silent, as if nature was preparing for a long sleep. The sun, breaking through the clouds, painted the tops of those bare trees on the far bank in a soft golden color. The water was perfectly still, mirroring the changing sky and the slender silhouettes. I stood on the bank, watching…boddhisattva in # photography • 15 days ago • 1 min readPink walls in autumn lightI always kinda prefer these old palaces when it’s not peak summer. Less crowds, more space to just breathe. This panorama really shows how wide open it still felt, even with people walking around. Those statues, they just stand there, seen so much history, I bet. The light, it was pretty muted, all grey and soft, but it made the palace’s pink…boddhisattva in # photography • 16 days ago • 1 min readA walk in the autumn lightOnce, several years ago, I wandered through one of our small city squares. The sun was already setting, but it was still shining brightly, breaking through the thin branches of the birches.

Autumn walks always gave me a special peace, especially when the sun was already setting. The water here is almost mirror-like, with clouds and bare tree branches sinking into it, creating amazing symmetry. I remember standing on the shore then, just breathing in that…
