notes:
That`s a picture of a tower taken in the town of Ladoga (its Norse name Aldeigjuborg), it is better known as Staraia Ladoga and is located 128 km north from St. Petersburg, the town itself is 1300 years old (it was founded around 750), and had once been Rus or Russia`s “capital”, but that was in 900s, over thousand years ago. This tower (Klementievska or St. Clement`s) is new as it dates only from the late 1500s. The film was traditional generic black and white film (purchased in German Rheinhard photo supplies store), that I myself processed in developer of my own making.

not bad, the size of the tower is quite overwhleming and the bird adds a touch to the scale
