Photographer’s Note

This Cathedral of the Savior and Transfiguration stays in a center of Belozersk's kremlin and was built in 1670.

If to see from a town, most part of the cathedral is hidden by earthy walls of the kremlin.

Hello Igor,
The church Russian are of any beauty with this so characteristic architecture with bulbs. The gray variations emphasize the gilded color of the crowned facings. I like this off-set framing. Excel work.
Have a nice day
Cordially

One more beautiful church presented by you, Igor. The snow compliments the scene as it is a common element for Russia! Lada is one more suitable for your country.

This architecture is interesting, as we all know in Russian churches. You always remind the fact to all of us!
Thanks for sharing your lovely theme.

Regards,
Athanasios.

Hi Igor,
a nice small cathedral and the composition in a nearly square format and balancing with the tree is a good choice, very appropriate. The sky is a bit grainy for me, but the rest is well done in that difficult light.

Что за странная идея ехать на Русский Север в марте? Почти так же, как моя мудрая мысль ехать в Суздаль в ноябре.
Как итог: никаких красот природы и можно сосредоточиться на архитектурных красотах, хе-хе.
Хороший собор и фотка хорошая!
Ну и насчет Лады - когда они все уже перестроятся, а? Лет через 100, наверное.

Hi Igor,
That's a superb church. Those gray tones under a gray sky are working really well. The little bit gold makes it an excellent colour picture.
Cheers

Hello Igor,

This Russian church is superb with the bulbs so characteristic. I like your composition with the tree on the left of the church. Very beautiful nuances in the colors too.
