St. Isaac's Cathedral (inside view)
That seems to be all. More I have nothing to brag about. All your photos from Peter I showed you... This is the final part, not very good, but you can see St. Isaac's Cathedral from the inside))) to be honest and Frank, after the Savior on spilled blood, Isaac seemed boring to me. The only thing heart skipped a beat, this is a huge carved doors... Such beauty I have not seen, sometimes even the feeling that they are alive and moving figures...
To remove there, too, was difficult, in conditions of very poor light and lack of tripod, the pictures turned out either too muddy or too dark, or some colorless... To such filming should be prepared in advance.
Here THERE is a wonderful panorama, which can be used to make an interesting virtual tour of the Cathedral. We strongly recommend to pay attention to the doors! However, if fumbled on the link, my photo is already possible not to look!)))
And now some information from the Wiki to prevent:
St. Isaac's Cathedral (official name — the Cathedral of St. Isaac of Dalmatia) is the largest Orthodox Cathedral in St Petersburg. Located on St. Isaac's square. Has the status of a Museum. Built in 1818-1858 years by architect Auguste Montferrand; the construction was supervised by the Emperor Nicholas I, the Chairman of the Commission of the building was Carl Opperman.Solemn consecration on may 30 (June 11) 1858 a new Cathedral was officiated by the Metropolitan of Novgorod, St-Petersburg, Estonian and Finnish Gregory (Postnikov). Height — 101.5 m, the inner area — more than 4000 m2.
Only, in my opinion, a successful photo of all vnutrismennyh... Like a stream of light)))
But those carved doors, which I came to the wild delight)))
Of course, the addition to my collection!))) Or Isaac on ladoshke))) Wanted to take a picture against the background of Moscow, but too light, see Moscow, and St. Isaac's Cathedral in the bulb there is...(((
A couple more night pics, not got in the previous posts)
Still the same magical water)))
The idea right honestly steal pictures from Sledge)))
Well, I do)))
From Peter no more pictures))) and post about the Cathedral of the Savior on blood earlier in the blog)))
I don't think you lost much))) Here is the Cathedral of the Savior on blood, Yes! Must see!/)))
I would like to see... :) I still regret that when I was in Moscow, went in the Armory. But even then, in Soviet times, there was a huge queue that my mother simply did not dare to stand in it. ))
The point is not to get around physically. I don't really understand as it is art. Yes, survived, but hanging on the walls in our days, which was drawn 100 anniversary ago... but not impressed. Need after 40 years to go out again. The same way the Faberge Museum more impressed! All I only know that Viktor Vekselberg some precious eggs what-that where-that there... And in fact it means the Shuvalov Palace is fully restored, and 5 years were organized throughout Europe returned to Russia 5000 items of jewelry and presents all in one place – in St. PETERSBURG and you can go look at it. About it in the news as not much was said... And it's not some "precious eggs in his collection", and the cultural heritage of Russia, Faberge court jeweler of each egg bears or the image of a king, Queen or timed Easter and the Royal and an interesting story relates to the events of that time and our history.
To the whole of the Hermitage to pass you need to be two or three free days... ))) one day will not pass, will fall down )) "In the Greek hall in the Greek hall... Oh Apollo, Oh Apollo... Well, Yes, I am Apollo!" (C) ;)))

Photos of the doors reminded me of the movie "the haunting" )) directly and subconsciously expect that the figures will come to life... )
Thanks for the interesting and beautiful pictures! ) Once upon a time I was in St. Petersburg, but unfortunately couldn't go inside the Cathedral. :( And now, looking at these photos, I regret twice ))
Thanks again )
Yeah, I door long considered here is the art, the state Hermitage Museum after the Cathedral was a test)
A bit later when the kid grows up... )) will kill Two birds with one stone — he will look at this beauty, and I )))

Got))) pictures of the colonnade scattered reports))))
Need now on the "belfry" of the Smolny Cathedral to climb.
Well, sometimes(((( you have to be patient, when the cultural programs go. Now almost all people sooo much!
There was looooooll people that do not barrel!(((( there we got stuck in the crush for about 30 minutes((((
We too much look((( there is an exhibition of the icebreakers was, we even one eye did not look(((
As it was St. Petersburg, the time one day back in the evening, so you don't have time to see many sights of the city.
Your second photo in this post, where light shines, in the heart of pigeon =) At a height of 80 meters, if I remember correctly.
When in St. Isaac's Cathedral was walking did not think that the dove is 1.5 to 2 meters. From below it is quite small. And in the basement of the Cathedral is another exposure, where most of the equipment from the old Museum, what a Foucault pendulum is that hung in the center.
I really like it. Here and texture, and diagonals, symmetry, balance, and thirds, composition.
And technically, there is sharpness, rich colors and preexposure well.
Than treat?
No, it's the kit lens))) blaze can be like, but I don't like in places to click on vspyshka, though this is just a Museum))) first: photos of buggy work, vovo-second: surrounding the blind)))

Was recently, very impressed. And his story of how he was moved from place to place. Construction technology and as a European architect gave 40 years of his life to create it. As the dangling ball inside the Cathedral rocked, put the experience and debunked the belief in God of the proletariat, to the sound of the falling plates, so as the ball rotation of the earth shifted and knocked it to the n-wave. And the dove of peace from the centre of the dome (photo 2) took off to the ball to pin In the inside... also a lot of old photos on one of them the post-revolutionary image, where the familiar façade of the Cathedral, view as photo 1, but instead of existing area of cabbage field and women satisfied weighty velký clean...
Foucault's Pendulum. I saw him the boards were down. Why take off... ?

Beautiful pictures! We are also with his wife were there. Wedding trip to Peter left a lasting incredible impression about this beautiful city! It is a pity that far away from us. Each year would have went there.
Now preparing a very interesting film about St. Isaac's Cathedral. And believe me, the official history of construction of this monumental impossibly complex building will be in this movie dispelled in the dust. is the trailer (the teaser we). :)
In the meantime, it is possible to see:
A good habit))) But I find it easier to "you", unless, of course, is not difficult))) If it is difficult, I will suffer))))
Or: my name is Vika!))) Look out your window and all you can be "you")))
Then you can start learning with an alternative theory mathematics Fomenko. He proved that our history of the Romanovs took 1000 years just erased the truth and rewrote in its own way. But it is not the whole truth, there are some misconceptions.
I do not doubt)))
But it would be interesting to know, maybe then the subject and would not be so dry at school))) but generally, I'm not comunitari not a creative person, I am a mathematician)))
Oh! About Egypt and their pyramids also have a lot of mozgovzryvayuschie information that hide from the people! It's just incredible the information that lies poisoning the brain refuses to accept the truth.
I can only say one thing: humanity is much more interesting and exciting story than we are told by the historians.
))) for me the story-even the very heavy subject... which side does not fit, all is useless... And reading a lot can not))) here's an interesting peredachku can look)))) I Remember one time on the shows about Egypt sit tight)))
See this very useful, but here is the information of the guides are often wrong. Heck, even the official story about Peter much conceals and muddles. The Romanovs is very much the story for themselves knocked out with the help of their hired German scientists. So guides are optional. :)

the Cathedral is Kiev...
I've read about him, somehow hands did not reach((( and all of the tour time is not enough(((
and I of Saviour more external its architecture is remembered, and in General I'm more on the architecture, now I understand, pay attention to until to isaky is not reached, there are probably really hooked on everything inside. And the weakest impression somehow Kazan made.
sure!
when I was there, all the time went with my head, now roam the virtual consider every area "under the feet". have visited many cathedrals then, but for some reason this is the strongest impression.
Thank you)))
The link just happened to wander))) That would have audio to it))))
thanks for the link and pics like I have been. here's to upstairs, then nostalgia would be released...
the photos are wonderful.
hi! I have all your notes about Peter always react today could not resist and wrote)))))
Now to him lead tours by appointment! But sense to look at the pendulum in a box in the basement no.
That's when he swung (to 86) — impressive!
Oh, this is something new, we never heard about this((( the tour did not take(((
ATM-though brought out of the temple?
Before there is a Foucault pendulum swinging, the guide was placed next to the Cup, and the next swing of the pendulum it was down, which meant that the Earth is spinning.
Rather, he is not boring, but more stately and austere than the Saviour on the spilt blood.
This is not modesty))) is a fact of life))) 80% of the shots are done in auto mode))) toleo night in manual)))) is fast, but the telephoto))) im not all fotografiruesh)))
Nikon for enough to buy a fast lens. Serious technique to carry still hard! But normal glass would be a great help! Excursion to Isaakii takes only 30 minutes.
For "not photographer", is not even bad! I appreciate Your modesty! ;))
We did not have time on trips((( I know that there are many interesting rasskazyvayut, but we had 3 full days and 2 nights, full and ogolennyh... I'm 5 days sleep a maximum of 12 cases((( I wanted to cover more, and eventually almost did not have time(((( Need to go...
On a serious equipment I'm not ready))) too expensive for me((( and not a photographer, I)))
For a whale lens is not bad photo. It was possible to nitrome correct. This Nikon?
In General, Isaac need to watch with the guide. A lot more interesting. Pay attention to many details that do not realize. And about the doors cast from bronze tell, and the bird from the ceiling — why she did, and why back put. And about more! By the way, it's not just a Museum, but the current Cathedral, which lead the service!
To the colonnade to go at night, or even better at sunset. Gorgeous views of the city, by the way, there around the perimeter of the working speakers that are the audio tour . Very informative and interesting!
As for the Savior on spilled Blood is an entirely different Cathedral, built on another occasion and at another time. That's a different story Petersburg, no less interesting, but to compare them or how much not! They each in their own way beautiful and unique!
For photos, thank you. to remove better - you need serious equipment! Which costs and weighs little.))
So to the author - respect!
