Russia brought a childhood dream come true for me. Visiting Red Square and the Kremlin, Moscow in winter time was something which gave me the opportunity to capture this beautiful area including the iconic St Basils Cathedral, the amazing architecture of the Kremlin, the disciplined and extremely well timed and smart changing of the guard at the Tomb of the unnamed Soldier. It was a real pleasure to just wander this snow covered area for a few hours and I managed to capture some scenes which I was after. Russia is a country which I would love to explore more and I sure I will in the not too distant future. The Trans Siberian Railway is another trip I have wanted to do from a young age which I will do for sure sometime soon and will hopefully capture some amazing exposures through Siberia, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Vladivostok and many more wonderful places.
Russia
Amazing winter wonderland at the Kremlin - Red Square, Moscow
Moscow State Historical Museum - Red Square, Moscow. Such beautiful architecture
St. Basils Cathedral - Red Square, Moscow. It was truly amazing to experience Moscow in winter, to see this spectacular and very iconic cathedral.
Spasskaya Bashnya - The famous 15th Century clock tower at the Kremlin. I feel very privileged to have been here at the Kremlin in the winter season. One of my childhood dreams fulfilled.
Nikolslaya Tower (15th Century Gothic Defence Tower) & Moscow State Historical Museum - Red Square. A capture in black & white is sometimes what brings out a vivid scene.
Tomb of the Unknown Soldier - The Kremlin, Moscow. Another part of a childhood dream was to see these incredibly smart and exceptionally disciplined soldiers change their guard posts. It was -15° Celsius but without a doubt, absolutely worth the wait
