This is a post to go with #WednesdayWalk challenge by @tattoodjay
Just a little walk (or, you may think of a run) under rain across St.Petersburg street without an umbrella but with a camera. Happily, it wasnt a heavy rain. All pictures taken by me.
So, it was a rainy day.
Chestnut Boulevards... Dont it looks like Paris in 1930-es? unfortunately, its not!
And the chestnuts arent of the edible kind. (The edible chestnut tree specie belong to the south, it do not occur so far to the north).
But we can buy them at some local stores. I thought of taking a pic for my story, but decided not to do an extra stop under rain.
The leaves being prepared for extradiction (for further eradication).
Recently I notice more and more folks doing this senseless crazy job: pumping off dead leaves from the streets to the lawns, and from the lawns to the piles, from the piles into the ugly fat black packs. Crazy job.
Mushrooms. It seems, every second stump is taken!
Everyday I took a new pics of new mushrooms at same old spots, and follow the birth and aging of the most photo-friendly ones.
I spotted this old poplar tree that seems had a lot of extra nutrition for the Oyster mushroom mycellium - for the last two weeks I follow it and examine results with great intrest! And of course, from time to time I take pics, not everyday of course.
There is a nice rose flower bed on my way, located near tram station I pass by, I took some pictures on a sunny day with my usual macro telephoto, but today it looks very different. Of course I could not stay long, just took six shots very quickly.
Thanks for walking with me, see you next time!
Надеюсь, вам было приятно прогуляться со мной по улицам Петербурга!

Hello dear friend @qwerrie good night
I loved this hike.
What beautiful images, I love rainy days, but I almost never take pictures of them because I am taking care of the camera
It is good that the rain has allowed you to capture these beautiful photographs
I really appreciate you teaching us
Have a wonderful night and a happy rest
А я ведь так ни разу и не попробовала каштаны... Надо исправить.
думаю, на Сенном рынке точно продаются. на одном из лотков, которые я прохожу у Международной, тоже, по 300 р стоят. когда будешь их в духовке готовить (а у тебя есть духовой шкаф?.. если нет, тогда томить на сковороде?..) надо учесть что они стреляют! лопаются и разлетаются, как шрапнель. действительно, такой забавный опыт! до сих пор помню наш с М. единственный раз...
Духовка у меня есть. Но она же со стеклом, если они стреляют - их нельзя туда.
you did not let the rain slow you down, you made a wet day into a photo spectacular with so many cool shots
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)
