36th album
(Translated by Sergey A. Maslyakov)

As I mentioned before the previous album was the last one of the winter series. But before the spring takes the place I would like to bring to your attention the anthology of the pictures I made at different seasons but the main idea of all these pictures is the replacement of the cultural things with the views of the nature.

Let's start from winter. These shots were made relatively near to the city.

The vault of the cave and hanging stalactite (stalagmite?) that you see here are just the icicles in the small hole. It was so small so it took some time to put the camera inside the hole.

Never-freezing brooklet.

Frozen flame.

The flame of the bonfire melted the snow (after 5 months :) and the snowdrops rose on this place.

What is behind the turn?

Such unusual sky you may see in the reflection in the pool. The spot on the sun flows somewhere on his own "spotty" business.

Like the scene from the Bible.

Here comes the summer. This shot and all following ones were made far away from the city and close to Ladoga lake.

The civilization has penetrated in this forest deep. I guess now you understand the meaning of the word "telegraph pole". It is not a joke. The phone works! I should mention that when it is ringing it makes very special feeling.

One of the local inhabitants is lying right opposite to this pole. Possibly, she is waiting for the call.

Here begins the world. How did Shevchuk say? "The world number zero!"

The rainbow in the village.

Three stages of the solution of non-phylosophic problem: "how to get the food if the cup is narrow but the face is flat?"

The girl from Siberia. All her life before she thought that such fir-trees and dark forests do exist in the tales only.

The pathway along the lake coast.

... and the coast by itself.

The coast too... In some way :)

The sunset over the village.

The cat in the sack.

And back to the city again.
