The Old Park Photo

Photographer’s Note

St.Petersburg - Pushkin - The Alexander Park (The Landscape Park)

Alexander Park consists of 188 square hectares, and is divided into two parts, the Regular (new park) and the Landscape park. The Landscape Park is located where once was the Menagerie, the part of the forest which was designated for wild animals and looked as an English Landscape park. Its environment is filled with decorative pavilions in medieval gothic style.

What a fabulous shot, it looks like it should be in a painting. Nice color tones and good balance. Were you standing on another bridge?

nice shot and nice POV and composition, its a pity that the sky has burnt out and it just white now. also i think it is sharpened too much as it becomes difficult to look at after a while, its a nice shot though and technically great well done

Very beautiful. Looks like XIX century realistic painting.
Thank you for sharing

Nice shot of the little river and the pitoresques bridge. Good clarity (except the sky) and colours. The reflection is very well.
Very well seen and composed
I like it..... Grts. Tars

Nice view of the park, and well executed. Maybe shifting your PoV to leave a less central view downthe canla would be interesting also.

Hi Olga - nice shot of the park. I just came back from a trip to your beautiful city, and it looks like I was in this park only a few days before you took this picture. I really like the symmetry of this photo, which gives it a very peaceful feeling. The balance from side to side and top to bottom is great. Hope we get to see more like this!
