Inspired by a recent Zentangle blog article, I drew this on an 8 x 10" tan card stock, all by hand, with no rulers, etc. Used Micron pens in several sizes, graphite, white colored pencil and white poster paint pen.

Moscú - Moscow - Москва
Kolómenskoe o Kolómenskoye (en ruso Коло́менское), situada en la elevada orilla derecha del río Moscova, es la antigua residencia suburbana de los grandes duques y zares de Rusia. Sus torres y torretas, iglesias y aposentos se divisan desde lejos. Hoy día es un museo nacional al ser un monumento de la arquitectura rusa de los siglos XVI–XVII. La iglesia de la Ascensión de Kolómenskoye fue declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco en 19941
La primera mención de Kolómenskoe aparece en el testamento del príncipe moscovita Iván I de Rusia (Iván Kalitá) y data de 1336 y 1339. Según la leyenda, el poblado Kolómenskoe fue fundado a fines de 1230, aquí se había asentado la población huida de la invasión tártara de Batú (1237–1238). Kolómenskoe siempre «se consideraba de soberanos», es decir pertenecía a los príncipes, después a los grandes príncipes y por fin a los zares y emperadores.
En 1530, cuando nace Iván —el futuro Iván el Terrible— el hijo de Basilio III de Moscú, se establece la sucesión hereditaria. En honor del nacimiento del heredero del trono ruso se ponen los cimientos de la iglesia de la Ascensión. Y se crea una verdadera joya arquitectónica del siglo XVI, cuya forma piramidal transmite a la iglesia una elegancia exquisita. La iglesia de la Ascensión sirvió de modelo para todas las construcciones con techumbre piramidal en Rusia (en ese caso el templo está rematado por un tejado alto en forma de tienda poligonal).
Durante muchos años, Kolómenskoe fue una residencia suburbana de los zares, donde pasaban el verano. Aquí en muchas ocasiones permanecía Pedro I, descansaba Catalina II y sus nietos.
El primer palacio de madera donde residió el zar Alejo I (Alekséi Mijáilovich) quedó desmontado. Algún tiempo después en este solar fue edificado el segundo palacio para Catalina II que posteriormente fue derrumbado. No obstante, el paso del tiempo y los cambios sociales llegaron a destruir todo.
En la época de los Románov (dinastía Románov) se fueron construyendo varias dependencias: la Torre del Agua (1640), el almacén de víveres, las Cámaras de coronel, la cocina y otras instalaciones. Todos los monumentos conservados (la lista incluye más de 20) son testigos venerables de los tiempos pasados.
En 1923 se inauguró el Museo de arquitectura en madera al aire libre. En el recinto se encuentran las muestras de las construcciones de madera de Rusia Antigua. Es de destacar así llamada la Casa de Pedro I, traída de la norteña ciudad rusa Arjánguelsk, y la torre con puerta del monasterio de San Nicolás de Korela (1691–1692).
En el poblado de Diákovo (cultura arqueológica del siglo VII a. C.), separado de Kolómenskoe por un barranco profundo, en el siglo XVI fue erigida la iglesia-campanario con advocación de San Juan Precursor, compuesta de cinco torres octaédricas unidas por una sola base.
Hoy, Kolómenskoe es un lugar muy querido por los moscovitas para pasear y celebrar las fiestas consagradas a efemérides históricas.

Kolomenskoye (Russian: Коло́менское) is a former royal estate situated several kilometers to the southeast of the city center of Moscow, Russia, on the ancient road leading to the town of Kolomna (hence the name). The 390 hectare scenic area overlooks the steep banks of the Moskva River. It became a part of Moscow in the 1960s.
Kolomenskoye village was first mentioned in the testament of Ivan Kalita (1339). As time went by, the village was developed as a favourite country estate of grand princes of Muscovy. The earliest existing structure is the exceptional Ascension church (1532), built in white stone to commemorate the long-awaited birth of an heir to the throne, the future Ivan the Terrible. Being the first stone church of tent-like variety, the uncanonical "White Column" (as it is sometimes referred to) marked a stunning break from the Byzantine tradition.
The church reaches toward the sky from a low cross-shaped podklet (ground floor), followed by a prolonged chetverik (octagonal body, and then an octagonal tent, crowned by a tiny dome. The narrow pilasters on the sides of the chetverik, the arrow-shaped window frames, the three tiers of the kokoshniks and the quiet rhythm of stair arcades and open galleries underline the dynamic tendency of this masterpiece of the Russian architecture. The whole vertical composition is believed to have been borrowed from hipped roof-style wooden churches of the Russian North. Recognizing its outstanding value for humanity, UNESCO decided to inscribe the church on the World Heritage List in 1994.
Tsar Alexis I had all the previous wooden structures in Kolomenskoye demolished and replaced them with a new great wooden palace, famed for its fanciful, fairytale roofs. Foreigners referred to this huge maze of intricate corridors and 250 rooms, as 'an Eighth Wonder of the World'. Although basically only a summer palace, it was the favorite residence of Tsar Alexis I. The future Empress Elizabeth Petrovna was born in the palace in 1709, and Tsar Peter the Great spent part of his youth here. Upon the departure of the court for St. Petersburg, the palace fell into disrepair, so that Catherine II refused to make it her Moscow residence. On her orders the wooden palace was demolished in 1768, and replaced with a much more modest stone-and-brick structure.
Detailed plans of the Alexis I palace survived. The Moscow Government has completed a full-scale reconstruction in 2010. The rebuilt palace stands approximately 1 kilometer (0.62 mi) to the south of its original location near the White Column, in order to preserve the historic foundations. The palace erected by Catherine the Great in 1768 was demolished in 1872, and only a few gates and outside buildings remain.
During the early Soviet period, under the initiative of architect and restorer Pyotr Baranovsky, old wooden buildings and various artifacts were transported to Kolomenskoye from different parts of the USSR for preservation, so currently Kolomenskoye Park hosts an impressive set of different constructions and historical objects.
imagine this photo, printed in large size, hanging on the wall of a living room, what do you think would be better, with or without a frame ?

I had a lot of fun making these, it's really interesting to see how many variations you can dish out with just one frame.
Sony Alpha 100 DSLR plus Minolta 28mm f2.8 prime lens.
Introduced in 2006 following the acquisition of Konica Minolta's camera assets, the A100 DSLR had been in development at Minolta. It brought to Sony, Minolta's legacy in camera and lens, design and engineering.
Recent acquisition for not a lot of money. You can tell it's mostly Minolta, the anti-shake is Minolta's, the control and menus. The scene logos are Minolta's going back to early DiMage cameras. The shutter, control wheel, eye-start and of course the AF mount. Sony's contribution was the sensor and the image processor.
A series of frames from one roll of Ilford FP4 added here in chronological order, with minimal editing.
One of the gyms located at Duga-3 outside of Pripyat. A former soviet early warning station a number of Russian troops were stationed here and would have used this gym to stay in shape.
One of my favorite frames from a series of this sanderling bathing at the Lot 6 beach in Parker River National Wildlife Refuge.
