Voronezh is a city and the administrative centre of Voronezh Oblast in southwestern Russia straddling the Voronezh River, located 12 kilometers (7.5 mi) from where it flows into the Don River. The city sits on the Southeastern Railway, which connects western Russia with the Urals and Siberia, the Caucasus and Ukraine, and the M4 highway (Moscow–Voronezh–Rostov-on-Don–Novorossiysk). In recent years the city has experienced rapid population growth, rising in 2021 to 1,057,681, up from 889,680 recorded in the 2010 Census, making it the 14th-most populous city in the country.
The first chronicle references to the word "Voronezh" are dated 1177, when the Ryazan prince Yaropolk, having lost the battle, fled "to Voronozh" and there was moving "from town to town". Modern data of archeology and history interpret Voronezh as a geographical region, which included the Voronezh river (tributary of the Don) and a number of settlements. In the lower reaches of the river, a unique Slavic town-planning complex of the 8th – early 11th century was discovered, which covered the territory of the present city of Voronezh and its environs (about 42 km long, about 13 forts and many unfortified villages). By the 12th – 13th centuries, most of the old towns were desolate, but new settlements appeared upstream, closer to Ryazan.
For many years, the hypothesis of the Soviet historian Vladimir Zagorovsky dominated: he produced the toponym "Voronezh" from the hypothetical Slavic personal name Voroneg. This man allegedly gave the name of a small town in the Chernigov Principality (now the village of Voronizh in Ukraine). Later, in the 11th or 12th century, the settlers were able to "transfer" this name to the Don region, where they named the second city Voronezh, and the river got its name from the city. However, now many researchers criticize the hypothesis, since in reality neither the name of Voroneg nor the second city was revealed, and usually the names of Russian cities repeated the names of the rivers, but not vice versa.
A comprehensive scientific analysis was conducted in 2015–2016 by the historian Pavel Popov. His conclusion: "Voronezh" is a probable Slavic macrotoponym associated with outstanding signs of nature, has a root voron- (from the proto-Slavic vorn) in the meaning of "black, dark" and the suffix -ezh (-azh, -ozh). It was not “transferred” and in the 8th - 9th centuries it marked a vast territory covered with black forests (oak forests) - from the mouth of the Voronezh river to the Voronozhsky annalistic forests in the middle and upper reaches of the river, and in the west to the Don (many forests were cut down). The historian believes that the main "city" of the early town-planning complex could repeat the name of the region – Voronezh. Now the hillfort is located in the administrative part of the modern city, in the Voronezh upland oak forest. This is one of Europe's largest ancient Slavic hillforts, the area of which – more than 9 hectares – 13 times the area of the main settlement in Kyiv before the baptism of Rus.
In it is assumed that the word "Voronezh" means bluing - a technique to increase the corrosion resistance of iron products. This explanation fits well with the proximity to the ancient city of Voronezh of a large iron deposit and the city of Stary Oskol. As well as the name of Voroneț Monastery known for its blue shade.
Folk etymology claims the name comes from combining the Russian words for raven (ворон) and hedgehog (еж) into Воронеж. According to this explanation two Slavic tribes named after the animals used this combination to name the river which later in turn provided the name for a settlement. There is not believed to be any scientific support for this explanation.
In the 16th century, the Middle Don basin, including the Voronezh river, was gradually conquered by Muscovy from the Nogai Horde (a successor state of the Golden Horde), and the current city of Voronezh was established in 1585 by Feodor I as a fort protecting the Muravsky Trail trade route against the slave raids of the Nogai and Crimean Tatars. The city was named after the river.
17th to 19th centuries
In the 17th century, Voronezh gradually evolved into a sizable town. Weronecz is shown on the Worona river in Resania in Joan Blaeu's map of 1645. Peter the Great built a dockyard in Voronezh where the Azov Flotilla was constructed for the Azov campaigns in 1695 and 1696. This fleet, the first ever built in Russia, included the first Russian ship of the line, Goto Predestinatsia. The Orthodox diocese of Voronezh was instituted in 1682 and its first bishop, Mitrofan of Voronezh, was later proclaimed the town's patron saint.
Owing to the Voronezh Admiralty Wharf, for a short time, Voronezh became the largest city of South Russia and the economic center of a large and fertile region. In 1711, it was made the seat of the Azov Governorate, which eventually morphed into the Voronezh Governorate.
In the 19th century, Voronezh was a center of the Central Black Earth Region. Manufacturing industry (mills, tallow-melting, butter-making, soap, leather, and other works) as well as bread, cattle, suet, and the hair trade developed in the town. A railway connected Voronezh with Moscow in 1868 and Rostov-on-Don in 1871.

This Image:
I wanted to capture both the real flow of the water, the movement in the sky, and the distorted reflection. I wanted the reflection to show that often one's perception of a river's flow is distorted and inaccurate. The flow diverges from reality as the viewer's eye follows the curves created by the bank and the mirror's edge.

Project Overview
A. Introduction
My project explores the nature of “flow”, and looks at its multiple permeations in the world, both natural and man-made. I am interested in the inherent challenge in expressing movement in a still image. Moreover, I am not interested in mere movement; my interest is in fluid movement, or flow.
In retrospect, every aspect of my life involves flow. Whether it is my kayaking career, ski racing, or my love of clean and simple design, I pursue flow. But how can one express the emotion—the feeling—of flow? As they say, a picture can be worth a thousand words.
I researched the study of fluid dynamics on the Internet to find possible subjects (science clarified ). The three examples of fluid movement that I decided to explore include:
1.Water
2.Smoke
3.Transportation (both vehicular and pedestrian)
B. Influences
My initial inspiration came from the work of Amar Ramesh. His work with smoke photography, and what he can do with his images in collage work is amazing. An interesting connection that I discovered while researching the art of flow and fluid dynamics was the artwork of Jackson Pollock (Technica). I had not thought of his painting as fluid, but it really is. While his work is not photography, it is certainly influential and noteworthy.
C. Technical Setup
Water:
I focused on river currents, both slow and fast. I used a slow shutter with some ND filters and a polarizing filter so that I could shoot during the day. I explored the expressiveness of both abstract and literal images.
Smoke:
I used an incense stick as my smoke source. I shot with no ambient light, and a very strong side light (500w Halogen), with a barn door to prevent light from leaking onto the black background. Most of my shots were in the neighborhood of 1/100 @ f4 ISO320. Ideally, I would have had enough light to shoot at f8, and ISO100 but I was unable to generate enough light. I experimented with various color balances to effect the emotions of the images. I chose to shoot at 1/100 over 1/200 to really highlight the movement of the smoke, at the expense of crispness in some instances.
Transportation:
I shot at night in uptown Charlotte. I found various elevated positions to incorporate the static city and the dynamic cars. I found it interesting, and challenging, to incorporate both the movement of pedestrians and automobiles in the same images. Slow shutter speeds, low ISO and small apertures helped me to get the results that I was looking for.
D. What I learned, what I would do differently, and where I would like to go next.
Regarding my goal of expressing fluidity in a static frame, I feel that I did a good job of expressing my feeling of flow. I learned that it took both abstract and literal images to demonstrate my emotions. Also, for a lot of these images I had to shoot a lot of frames to get what came out to about 30 good images. My estimate is roughly 1000 frames total. I think that this partly because of the nature of nature—it is very unpredictable.
I learned that it takes a lot of continuous light to be able to light a subject at a preferable f8 1/200 ISO100. I really enjoyed experimenting with lighting and the dramatic results that can be achieved. However, having absolute control over the light really forces you to understand what you are doing, and it can be challenging to achieve the look that you want.
If I could do this again, I would try to find a 1000W Halogen and use a reflector for the smoke photography. For my traffic photographs, I would have liked to be able to shoot from elevation in uptown. As it was, I was only able to shoot into uptown. Looking straight down on traffic would have been an interesting shot, with rich shapes and patterns.
If I were to expand this set of images, I would like to feature a group of images featuring the movement of people.
The one true failure in my project was my attempt to photograph oil in water. Finding a vessel that was absolutely clear proved nearly impossible. I also experimented with lighting the vessel from the side, the bottom and both. I was unable to get any shots that I was really excited by. I think that to make it work, I would have needed either a LOT of light, or a large enough tank that I could get some depth of field to be able to hit the focus right. As it was, the lens was too close to the bubbles to get sharp images. Additionally, the small vessel made it difficult to capture pleasing compositions.
