Hello my dear friends and monochrome lovers. Today I invite you to walk with me across the courtyards of St.Petersburg's residential disticts. The city is famous with its courtyards, there is always a room for surprising finds and cool architectural landscapes; and in #monochrome they look better most of the time! So, lets go.
A slice of clean sky.
Closed yard.
Arcade perspective.
Garages. Note the little 'Miru Mir' inscription in the left corner. =)
Graffiti all over the area.
More graffiti... floating down the walls. This yard is not car parking-friendly.
Church.
Entrance to the inner yard. First cigarette on the way to the office.
VO
'Aurora' cinema theatre - the oldest which the city have preserved. Was founded back in 1914 - so, it is celebrating the 110 anniversary this year (thats why these huge '110' figures at the entrance).
The tiny wooden bridge in the yard.
A dying progression; not complete silence yet, but approaching to it.
High overseer.

Thanks for walking with me, see you next time.
I wonder will the plantation in the yard can grow well except for the tree? since it looks like its surrounded with walls.
ver interesting perspective, and great shots as usual my friend.

This is the key question actually. Yes and no in one flack.
Mostly no - cause there is a serious limitation of solar light, and soil is being killed with human hands and idiot brains (plants are dying even where they happen to grow well).
On another hand, habitants of some yards value plants and flowers a lot, cause they are in huge deficit, and put a lot of extra efforts to help them grow. Now you understand me even more, why I !LUV shooting macro of wild nature and value my rare visits to wildnature oases outside the city so much. !PIZZA

Hello friends, good afternoon and best wishes to all of us. If you look at all the pictures that you have shown, it looks pretty good and the place is also quite beautiful.
I live in a beautiful, tourist city - full of places of intrest. Its not as great as Venice in Italy, but still nice. Just the weather is.. meh.
But for me the place there is extraordinary. I live in the village and rarely see beautiful places. Have a nice day.
Thank you! this is why I value Hive, it helps us travelling across the Globe and see a lot of nice places without leaving the sofa :P

Lovely yard impressions and looking great in black and white. I remember parts of St Pete had some lovely wide open roads too like in Berlin.
The city is quite spacious, with regular structure - not like Moscow, with medieval 'fortress-centered' structure. But that is of the streets and squares... the yards space is pretty dense packed. 8-)
The monochrome pictures are really cute and amazing
Good job!
Thank you for a visit. Glad you enjoyed the visuals. Maybe you could visit it at a tourist one day? All those imperial palaces and museums will wait for you. 🎈
I hope to do so someday
What a beautiful church and cinema! I guess graffiti is a universal problem in the big cities... Those pictures in black and white really give it an old feel, like they were taken in the 1930's. Great work!
