Or did I already post some of them? Maybe I did.
Anyway, I have an obsession with Russian nature. The only other country which I think is even better in some aspects is Norway.

Very beautiful pictures. As I said to svin, reminiscent of Norwegian landscapes.

Svin, are you using an old 6x9 Moskva camera?

At least the first shots are 6x9 and the tones are pretty pastel, as in non coated old lenses.

All wrong it seems, there are digital notes.

But the edge is typical of old negatives.

Fancy effect, not to mention the tones.

Good work.

A few days ago I watched on TV the 1965 film Doctor Zhivago, based on the novel of the same name (Доктор Живаго) by Boris Pasternak.

I've lost count of how many times I've watched this three hour long film. But the other day they gave a short account about its filming and I was surprised to find out that much of it had been done in Spain. Particularly they used the plains of the high plateau of Castille to achieve an effect similar to the steppes of Siberia.

Not so much surprised though. I remember at least one poem in Castilian Spanish literature where it mentions the Castilian plains as the Castilian steppe.

Moscow 1917.. Spain


Siberian Urals.. Spain
