There are not so many interesting things going at my place right now - basically, they are puddles, melting snow, the naked soil cleared of snow covered with mud and dead leaves... such a stuff. Therefore, on this walk, the main subject of photography was just this beautiful spring light.

Вокруг меня сейчас не так много интересных вещей - в основном, это лужи, тающий снег, очистившаяся от снега земля покрытая грязью и мертвыми листьями, вот такой вот стафф. Поэтому на этой прогулке я в основном фотографировал красивый весенний свет :)

The trees stand naked - soon it all will change.

Each tree trunk is an epicenter of snow melting, a little spring, an awakening of life. Oasis! Therefore, my walk resembles a journey through the snowy desert ... between the oases.

Ствол каждого дерева - эпицентр таяния снега, весны, пробуждения жизни. Оазис! Поэтому моя прогулка напоминает путешествие по снежной пустыне... между оазисами.

The tits are lurking around here and there.

Синички промышляют тут и там.

Unfortunately, they are so shy and cautious that refused to let me get closer than 150mm - so, no fascinating close-ups today, just some 'portraits in the environment'.

К сожалению, они такие стеснительные и осторожные, что отказались подпустить меня ближе чем на 150мм - поэтому никаких близких планов сегодня.

Unfortunately, I am deprived of the opportunity to walk along the seashore (although my city is a port and is located exactly at the Baltic Sea coast, thats a fact!). In winter and spring one may see at the shore many interesting structures and pieces of art created by nature and weather; well, I have to limit myself to what I can find in the local park. In spring, melting piles of snow form palaces of very bizarre configurations.

К сожалению, я лишен возможности гулять по берегу моря (хотя мой город - порт и расположен на берегу Балтийского моря, это факт). На берегу зимой и весной можно увидеть немало интересных конструкций и произведений искусства, созданных природой и погодой. Ну а мне приходится ограничиваться тем что я могу найти в местном парке. Весной тающие кучи снега образуют весьма причудливые конфигурации.

Ice ponds and shady places that the sun does not have time to warm up during the day are still covered with ice, but some "hot spots" already please my eye with blooming snowdrops and crocuses. Flowers and ice and frost at once.

Лед прудов и тенистые места, которые солнце не успевает прогреть за день, все еще покрыты льдом, но самые "горячие места" уже радуют мой глаз подснежниками и крокусами.

Silver nuggets are scattered here and there... but soon they all will be gone.

Самородки серебра валяются здесь и там... скоро они исчезнут.

And this bizarre gem is yellowish -- does it mean I found a nature's gold nugget?..

Napoli's blue? Well, its St.Petersburg, so... probably not, even in spring. Ok, let me stop at this point -- enjoy the colours of spring, and thanks for walking with me, see you next time!

This time of year when the snow is still melting and there are puddles and mud everywhere can be so frustrating
But you turned that around focusing on the gorgeous light in these amazing images

Чудесная прогулка! Видно, чот солнышко ярко светило и снег помогал раздавать снег :)

нормально, ага, главное свет весенний, солнышко, тепло!

от снега идет засветка в такие дни. надо фильтр цеплять, чтоб отрезать лишнюю белизну.
