This is a post to go with WednesdayWalk challenge by @tattoodjay

Recently we had good sunny weather, and I walk out quite a lot... not every day but still. Today's pictures taken in the local park (which 'officially' is not a park at all, so it is not sealed and not restricted from visiting, like my closest and usual-to-to Victory Park). So... some streetphoto and, mostly, nature's photo: I go out eauipped with 300mm tele and 150mm macro. And I already discovered fresh fungi (unedible), I share them in other posts...

I really dont know why did I triggered the shutter at this. A sudden impulse...

This is the main alley. It look very different when the trees are not completely green. By error, I shamelessly over-exposed the image, and had to perform a lot of digital manipulations to save it and make looking any good.

Entering the park, I met the local overseer cat. He is beautiful and has very clever eyes, I really fall in love with him. But I figure out he's already taken (i.e. not a wild one).

Folks with masks on their necks (ready to use), folks already wearing masks, folks with gloves, folks without anything... folks pulling masks on their babies ("we dont want to take any risks...") all sorts of folks one can eet there.

Just didnt meet horses and dogs wearing masks (yet).

An eye-contact have happened here! Sometimes its a bad thing that spoils the image, but here, vice versa -- it makes the picture look very special and pleasurable, isnt it?

Bokehlicious!

This is one of my fave scenes from this walk. I discovered this young lady that was walking out her dog... she put on the headphones and was just laying on a tree and listening to it, for more than 10 minutes that I was there! The poor bulldog was boringly sitting and walking around that dust-bin...

I think I have captured a decent piece of life here!
Simply in love with this capture.


Ok, thanks for walking with me,-- see you next time!
Надеюсь, вам было приятно прогуляться со мной по улицам Петербурга!

I feel like I walked with you. 😊 Have always had a fascination with St Petersberg and not managed to get there YET in this lifetime. I am eternally hopeful.

I will share this hope with you!
at least you can read a few books and watch a few albums. thats a little consolation. sitting in lockdown I was reading a few books about the local 'oldies', founding of the city back in 1703, etc. so I am overfulfilled with impressions right now. Tho I can not advice you English translations, as my books are in Russian, obviously. but I can upload a photoalbum for you.

Дамочка в зеленой маске очень хорошо получилась.)) и листик растения с невыговариваемым названием тоже очень хорош.))

а у меня почему то такие вещи как ссыль на карту не видно в посте...

у меня ссылка видна, у тебя нет, но работает. вот я и удивился.

это же листок клена. Bokehlicious - это не название. это , в смысле, много бокэ :)

по мне, в общем то тут только две карточки хороших - дама в зеленой маске и дама с собачкой :) остальное так, крипто-балласт.

uh, well, frankly speaking, not at all. most of the stuff in that post was a Streetphoto Ephemera. And I prefer to commit to the worldmap such a places of intrest that always would be there, for everyone who would decide to check them. maybe its a bit wrong conception, but it has some power on me, nevertheless.

all the best!
