The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Perhaps the most profound image of all:
(Drunk bums sleeping at the Fontanka quay)
Weird building encased in glass.

Fontanka
Fontanka. Trash.

I loved this eclectic group of tattered old buildings – with massive smoke stacks rising behind them.
Foot bridge across the Fontanka
People throw coins on that from the bridge
I missed

St. Petersburg’s City Hall on Isaakevskaya Square. Certainly well-maintained.
As some may or may not know, Russia’s president Putin was a St. Petersburg city official before moving up (and after his stint as a KGB spy). In the 90’s, when my dad went to city hall to register my grandmother’s small business, the official meeting him and signing the papers was none other than Putin.
Monument to Nicholas I, famed not for the person but the horse, which is the only horse monument of this type in the world that balances on two points (the legs) instead of 3 points (legs + tail) – designed by the same sculptor Klodt with some ingenious calculation.
That girl having her picture taken there was REALLY cute. A passing group of Japanese tourists saw here and immediately rushed to beg her to take pictures with them
Elaborate lamp next to the monument
