From one of the highest view points in St Petersburg, Russia. These two angels looked as if they were guarding the city.

The Russian double-eagles have divided Peter into two halves. Two half-pictures defy math and refuse to make a whole one. Work more for unity of topic and be more aware of the things that detract from your subject.

Hmm i do not know about the remark above, if i check that gallery there are a lot of remarks i could make as well, but we are not here for that. I do like this image very much, since i like to view the world view sites like these. Russia is very unfamiliar to me although on the same continent. St Petersburg must be a good place to visit, specialy with their Herritage museum beeing there. Your image gives a good view over the city, and the eagles give the image dept. Thanks for the posting.

I am in the middle on this one. The picture is a little busy, keeps my eyes dancing around, but with the angels perched as they are on the corner of the building I don't see a better angle to shoot from. Therefore, in my opinion, the benefits of the shot override the busy-ness of the shot! Good capture!

I enjoyed this one...although it took me a while to figure out exactly what I was looking at. Beautiful view of the city!
