Looks like a nice city to visit at any time of the year! Winter, in Eastern Europe though is always going to test your resources and stamina!! The opera building looks nice and I can see why you like the benches in the foreground. The big heavy tree trunks though, I feel, detract from the image. Was there not another position to shoot from? Very good job otherwise.

Very nice winter photo. Beautiful how the benches make that curve. The light is very diffuse and nice. The building offers balance. Good first impression. Nice artist notes. Thanks for sharing

This is really beautiful. It conveys that real wintery feeling! I love the subject, it is interesting. Good contrast and color too.

I like this it is a great view, cold snow, and the charm of benches, the buildings look old and have a lot of character...great job

Annie, I think this is just beautiful. For me the benches and the trees are the best part. Even though they are covered in snow, they look inviting. I wish the street lamps were lit. The Opera house is well seen and the whole of the image has a winter wonderland look to it. Very nice composition.

    Thank you very much for the nice review. I should have taken this later in the day when the lamps were lit, but by that time I had enough for that day.

    And who could blame you. I spent some time in Russia at Christmas and my hands almost ceased to function. Bren

nice photo, good focus and DOF, nice color and lighting, I like the angle that you captured here of the park benches, but I find the tree on the left side of the frame is where the photo should be cropped, eliminating the tree. thanks for sharing!

    I think you are right. Was thinking of doing it, but decided against it. You made me change my mind. Thanks for the nice review.
