(Russian: Петропавловский собор) is a Russian Orthodox cathedral located inside the Peter and Paul Fortress in St. Petersburg, Russia. It is the first and oldest landmark in St. Petersburg, built between 1712 and 1733 on Hare Island along the Neva River. Both the cathedral and the fortress were originally built under Peter the Great and designed by Domenico Trezzini. The cathedral’s bell tower is the world’s tallest Orthodox bell tower. Since the belfry is not standalone, but an integral part of the main building, the cathedral is sometimes considered the highest Orthodox Church in the world.
Aurora (Russian: Авро́ра, tr. Avrora, IPA: [ɐˈvrorə]) is a 1900 Russian protected cruiser, currently preserved as a museum ship in Saint Petersburg. Aurora was one of three Pallada-class cruisers, built in Saint Petersburg for service in the Pacific. All three ships of this class served during the Russo-Japanese War. Aurora survived the Battle of Tsushima and was interned under US protection in the Philippines, and eventually returned to the Baltic Fleet.

Here’s another shot of the church from a different perspective with a more wintery view 🙂 The photo is straight out of the camera without any editing or post processing as it was saved as a jpeg. I actually forgot how to post process photos already! 🙂

The photo is shot with a Sony mirrorless camera without any filter or post processing.

Trying out the mobile version of wordpress and posting a photo direct from my iPhone for the first time
Was scrolling through my files and saw this shot I took last year while on holiday in Rome.
The image is SOOC (straight out of camera), no editing whatsoever.
I’m still scouting for a post processing software that works well with Mac, any recommendation?
