Susolovka. Life goes on!

in #travel6 years ago

Trains through Susolovka pass once every half hour, and even more often! Railroad crossing here without a barrier. There is still part of the village behind the railway tracks, but few people live there already.

Everyone is engaged in their business affairs.

There was a lot of snow this year and clearing the streets is one of the main occupations of all residents.

Again the train!

And again it went to the point.

In the center of Susolovki there are a lot of places where there are abandoned houses.

Streets are clearing with powerful heavy tractors.

And the main road between the villages serves the local road repair and construction management.

Another feature of Susolovka: small shield houses, similar to the boxes.

Landscape design local spill.

Ordinary private houses are closer to the suburbs and most of them are abandoned or used as dachas cottages in summer.

The only road sign in the village Susolovka installed next to the kindergarten.

Not far from the school there is a birch alley.

During the day, all life is in full swing at the school.

Children are engaged in physical education on skis.

Or just play snowballs at recess.

After the lessons, they are gathered by the whole school and continue to play snowballs.

It was the most positive thing I saw and photographed in this village!

I wanted to join myself, but I honestly continued to do my job, albeit with a smile on my face.

Susolovka is one of the most remote settlements in the Veliky Ustyug district of the Vologda region, where there is still life!

Good luck!

Loving the Ladybirds in the trees :) Very happy photos!

You made me think of my own childhood when I look at your photos. We also had so much snow and we played outside all winter. There wasn't a day we would stay at home unless it was a snow storm of course :) But these days are long gone. Recently, we barely even have some snow.. It's sad to see how the global warming affected our country. I'm glad to see that there are region with plenty of snow nowadays :)

Great photos of a lovely, picturesque village.

Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your curie vote!

Good thing there's no fire this time :) It's lovely to see so much snow in a village and it's more lovely to see kids playing outside and doing sport instead of staying inside and playing video games or who knows what. You did a great job documenting one happy day of the village, congratulations!

Thank you! Glad you like it!

Nice! And a bit cold, I reckon. :) Really like the opening and closing images.

Okay, firstly, this is a sweet little hamlet in the middle of snow en masse. Really cute yet structured humans can be to go and live in places that shouldn't be lived in but we decided that a little snow like this was child's play. Especially with the fact that people nonchalantly move about or don't wear snow gear that more global periphery and equator-line people would put on (albeit they would me more resilient by virtue of the things they face everyday than say a Global North person who wasn't a Slav or snow-weather enthusiast). Also TRAINS! Gotta love trains, especially when they travel in snow-blanketed areas like the Trans-Siberian areas. (Which yes I know this is in Russia, why do yah think I decided to mention that?)

Unto the fotos (photos) themselves: gosh I am god damn broken record or everyone is in a conspiracy of having really good cameras. I say this because hot damn (okay now that was a slip of the tongue because it's probably for yah: "cold heavens")! These fotos (photos) while not helped by the snow are clear and capture tons of detail, feels very much more like a window (especially the ones with dividers) I can use to enter into the area and have fun with the snow and make snow angels and captures much of the silent but once-lively atmosphere despite the decay and abandoned structures that are present. Then of course there's the entire scene with school kids and having fun with the snow around (not a common sight were I live, damn schools punishing people for playing with snow!); just all so cute and very detailed to the collapsing parts of the snow even!

Unto the formatting: I love the massive foto (photo) to text ratio, a good trend because these fotos (photos) can actually tell a story. The text, though a bit less than appropriate for this post (first time I had to say this, I must be losing myself!), is definitely appropriate and reflects/captures the readers thoughts very well into words. While also providing necessary context of the area and just the beauty of it as well, in spite of snow and abandoned/decayed/rotten structures here and there that do make a present image standing out.

So congratulations on the @curie upvote, keep on snapping picturas (pictures) and happy steeming!

I work as a press photographer in a local district newspaper and am in the most remote places. During the work I have seen a lot and for me this is the most usual and familiar sight picture.

Thank you for you mention and feedback!

Welcome for the comment! ~^^~
And that’s cool of yah, thanks again for sharing the post again.

This looks fairly remote and very rural.I love the snow how it has built up on the houses. I am sure everyone is looking forward to spring and a more outdoors lifestyle. I think this place will be transformed once the snow has gone and this village will be bristling with life again.
