Summer nature in the town of Konakovo near Moscow on the Volga River.
The largest and most full-flowing European river has many admirers: Nekrasov and Yevtushenko dedicated poems to it, Repin and Savrasov depicted it on their canvases, films were made about the Volga, and songs were written.
The Volga River flows from northwest to southeast, passes through 15 regions of Russia and flows into the Caspian Sea. High shores alternate with cozy sandy beaches. The forests hugging the channel give way to wide expanses of the steppe.
The length of the Volga is 3530 kilometers. Before the construction of reservoirs, it was even more - 3690 kilometers.
Even the Persians, led by King Darius, went on campaigns along the Volga against the Scythian tribes. In the treatises of the ancient Greek philosopher Herodotus, the river is called the Oar. It is believed that this is one of the first mentions of the Volga, made back in the 5th century BC.
The Volga had a lot of names. The ancient Romans called her Ra, which means "generous." Arab peoples Atelyu - "the river of all rivers." Turkic tribes - Itil, which simply means "river". Until now, this name has been preserved among some peoples. And the modern name of the great Russian river came from the Old Slavonic word "vlga", which means "moisture".
At all times, the Volga watered and fed people, was the main thoroughfare, a place of rest. But not infrequently, spring floods on the Volga brought destruction to entire villages. It was possible to tame her temper by creating a system of reservoirs with hydroelectric power stations. There are nine in total.

House with reflection in a pond in the Abramtsevo estate. Moscow region. Russia.
The building of the former medical building of the sanatorium, which was built next to the manor house in 1938. Here are the works of artists of the XX-XXI centuries, creatively associated with Abramtsevo. Many of these craftsmen lived and worked in the summer cottage village of Novo-Abramtsevo, founded in the 1930s near the estate.
In 1843, the estate was acquired by the writer Sergei Timofeevich Aksakov (1791–1859). Since then, many cultural figures have come here: writers Nikolai Gogol and Ivan Turgenev, historian Mikhail Pogodin, actor Mikhail Schepkin.
In 1870 the estate was bought by a wealthy industrialist and philanthropist Savva Mamontov. Two years later, the Abramtsevo art circle was conceived. Ilya Repin, Viktor Vasnetsov, Mikhail Vrubel, Isaac Levitan, Valentin Serov and others came here to visit and work.
After the 1917 revolution, the state established a museum in the estate. Now on the territory of the reserve there are architectural monuments of the XVIII-XIX centuries.

If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller's felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does.

Rupanyup, Julia Volchkova
About the work
Rupanyup’s silo art is the work of Russian mural artist, Julia Volchkova, who turned her attention to the town’s youth and their great love of team sport. The work vividly captures the spirit of community and provides an accurate insight into rural youth culture.
The featured faces are those of Rupanyup residents and local sporting team members, Ebony Baker and Jordan Weidemann. Fresh-faced and dressed in their sports attire (netball and Australian Rules football, respectively), Baker and Weidemann embody a youthful spirit of strength, hope and camaraderie.
Rendered onto a squat pair of conjoined Australian Grain Export steel grain silos, the delicately nuanced monochromatic work is typical of Volchkova’s realist portraiture style.
Accomplished over several weeks and unveiled in early 2017, the mural quietly honours the integral role that sport and community play in rural Australian populations.
Artist Bio
Julia Volchkova was born in Nizhnevartovsk, Siberia (Russia) and studied classical painting there before moving to Saint Petersburg in 2010. Heavily influenced by Russian realist painter Ilya Repin, Volchkova’s delicate portraiture seeks to explore the rich diversity present in the places that she visits.
An avid traveller, Volchkova uses art as a tool to deepen her knowledge of culture and place wherever she goes – always on a quest to understand the different communities that make up a local population. Her frequent travels have resulted in numerous large-scale murals of local people in Indonesia, Malaysia and elsewhere around the world.

The Academy of Arts, informally known as the Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts, was an art academy in Saint Petersburg, founded in 1757 by the founder of the Imperial Moscow University Ivan Shuvalov under the name Academy of the Three Noblest Arts. Catherine the Great renamed it the Imperial Academy of Arts and commissioned a new building, completed 25 years later in 1789 by the Neva River. The academy promoted the neoclassical style and technique, and sent its promising students to European capitals for further study. Training at the academy was virtually required for artists to make successful careers.
Formally abolished in 1918 after the Russian Revolution, the academy was renamed several times. It established free tuition; students from across the country competed fiercely for its few places annually. In 1947 the national institution was moved to Moscow, and much of its art collection was moved to the Hermitage. The building in Leningrad was devoted to the Ilya Repin Leningrad Institute for Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, named in honor of the Ukrainian-born Repin, one of the foremost realist artists in the Russian Empire and Soviet Union. Since 1991 it has been called the St. Petersburg Institute for Painting, Sculpture and Architecture.
The historic building on the Neva River in St. Petersburg is used for the Repin Institute of Arts, full name: Ilya Repin St. Petersburg State Academic Institute for Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, in honor of one of its well-known alumni. It is also called the St. Petersburg State Academic Institute of Fine Arts, Sculpture and Architecture.

Abramtsevo, artists’ colony on an estate became known in the 19th century for fostering the revival of Russian folk art and traditional crafts.
Heir to a large railroad fortune, Mamontov bought the property in 1870 from Aksakov’s daughter. He oversaw the complete renovation of the estate and, in upholding and expanding the spirit of Abramtsevo, he became one of the 19th century’s leading figures in the development of a Russian national art. During the 1870s and ’80s, artists including Mikhail Vrubel, Isaak Levitan, Ilya Repin, Yelena Polenova, and the brothers Apollinary Vasnetsov and Viktor Vasnetsov flocked to the Abramtsevo colony, which quickly gained a reputation as a breeding ground for creativity and for the revival of traditional arts and crafts.
This small church (1881–82) design was conceived by Vasily Polenov and Viktor Vasnetsov and drew inspiration from the medieval Russian cities Novgorod, Pskov, and Suzdal.
Icon of the Savior by I.Repin.
The Chapel elements according to the sketch of V.M. Vasnetsov, a chapel was completed, over the grave of Andrei Mamontov, the son of Savva Mamontov, who died in 1891.

Rain is marvelous! Especially when you you have access to a 50mm f/1.8 lens. :)
Like I said earlier, I feel soooo much better. :) I don't know exactly what my problem was, but I am over it.

A Mirror Image (in a plane mirror) is a reflected duplication of an object that appears almost identical, but is reversed in the direction perpendicular to the mirror surface. As an optical effect it results from reflection off from substances such as a mirror or water. It is also a concept in geometry and can be used as a conceptualization process for 3-D structures. Two-dimensional mirror images can be seen in the reflections of mirrors or other reflecting surfaces, or on a printed surface seen inside-out.
If we first look at an object that is effectively two-dimensional (such as the writing on a card) and then turn the card to face a mirror, the object turns through an angle of 180° and we see a left-right reversal in the mirror. In this example, it is the change in orientation rather than the mirror itself that causes the observed reversal. Another example is when we stand with our backs to the mirror and face an object that's in front of the mirror.
Then we compare the object with its reflection by turning ourselves 180°, towards the mirror. Again we perceive a left-right reversal due to a change in our orientation. So, in these examples the mirror does not actually cause the observed reversals.
In the end of the 19th and in the beginning of the 20th century Flyonovo village belonged to Princess Mary Tenisheva, who organized agricultural school with the best teachers, unique library, the latest technologies and created here an artistic colony.
She managed to realize the ideas of the revival of the Russian national art at her estate. Here at the edge of the centuries worked making the masterpieces of the new style many of the brightest and most famous artist - such as Repin, Vrubel, Roerich, Benoit, Serov, and many other celebrities.
In 1900, she opened an artisan workshop, which mainly produced ceramic and carving, and invited the painter Sergey Malyutin to supervise it. The apprentices, selected by Malyutin, were local peasants.
Malyutin stayed in Talashkino until 1903, and in the meanwhile designed a house in Flyonovo based on Russian fairy tales. Its most striking feature consists of brightly painted wooden assemblies that represented the symbolism deeply embedded in myths and folk legends such as the Firebird.
Now it is a museum.

This was the result of one of those "laugh-til-you-can't-breathe" kind of experiences. She ran around like a lunatic (under my direction), flailing her body all around while yelling "WoooOoooOOoWOOooooo" (that was of her own accord) for a few long exposure shots so I could create the ghosting. Never a dull moment :)
This picture was just what I needed...it just felt....fun! And right, like everything was in it's right place. I had thought about this picture for so long before creating it that it was like a breath of fresh air :)
Model: Katie Johnson - if that picture of Katie on Pinterest gets enough repins, she will win a spread in a magazine for her awesome modeling :)
