Just a simple scene with a few trees towering over the lake. Was a clear winter sky with wonderful light creating great shadows and details of the textures on the tree branches. A wooden bridge walkway is in distance to add to the focal discovery

Beautiful sunset over St. Petersburg.

Краснопресненская набережная (до 1940 — Пресненская набережная) — набережная на левом берегу Москвы-реки в Пресненском районе города Москвы.

 

Краснопресненская набережная возникла в 1760-х — 1770-х годах. В конце XVIII века в местности «Три горы» была построена Прохоровская мануфактура (ныне Трёхгорная мануфактура). В 1965—1979 на набережной был построен Дом Советов РСФСР (ныне Дом Правительства Российской Федерации).

 

Краснопресненская набережная получила своё современное название в 1940 году: ранее она называлась Пресненской - по местности Пресня, но в память о Декабрьском вооружённом восстании 1905 года её решили переименовать, дополнив прежнее название приставочной частью "Красно-". Местность же была названа по протекавшей здесь в прошлом речке Пресня, название которой означает буквально "река с чистой водой".

Bolotnaya embankment dates back to the pad Vodootvodny channel 1780. In the XVIII century. center of Moscow.

The Kremlin embankment is the most visited in Moscow. Here are the main sights of the capital: the Kremlin and the Cathedral of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is on the moat, popularly known as St. Basil's Cathedral..This is the first embankment of stone in Moscow. From it a wonderful picture opens up on the Moskva River and the main embellishment of the embankment - the Moscow Kremlin. In the south-west of the Kremlin there is a water tower built in 1488 by architect Fryazin. The tower of Taynitsk was erected in 1485 according to the design of the same architect, through which a secret passage to the river was laid. Next are the Unnamed, Petrovskaya and Moskvoretskaya towers.

The pink flowers have been blooming for weeks and very attractive to the eye.

Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Building is one of seven Stalinist skyscrapers laid down in September 1947 and completed in 1952, designed by Dmitry Chechulin (then Chief Architect of Moscow) and Andrei Rostkovsky. The main tower has 32 levels (including mechanical floors) and is 176 metres (577 ft) tall. At the time of construction it was the tallest building in Europe.

A riverside capture taken on a semi cloudy day on a walk out. There was a mahogany brown and dusty feel to the light so I tried to convey this within the scene, Spots of sunlight caught a few areas on the banks and crystal clear reflection on the right as the light was brighter but more soft and subdued reflection of the larger tree on the right. Was very surreal in how the clarity of the reflections differed. An ode to Constable in my mind.

Another of Chechulin's works, 176 meters high, with 22 usable levels, the Kotelnicheskaya Embankment Building was strategically placed at the confluence of the Moskva River and Yauza River.

This photograph was taken early morning last month from the Northern embankment of Lower Seletar Reservoir looking towards Heritage Bridge and beyond.

 

It was cloudy, and relatively calm with slight movements of the reservoir surface. There were three persons on a small boat performing mosquito fogging. This photograph captured the transient mist formations and disturbed water surface as the boat traversed to the right of the photograph.

 

I am extending my Season’s Greetings to you and family!
