Another panorama of Moscow. This is a side view of the Kremlin. It was perfectly sunny that day. Oh how I wished it was sunny now! It's been so-so weather for the past week. I understand the comment a tour guide said to us in imperial St. Petersburg. There all houses are painted in colors because the weather is very grey and moody and at least having colorful houses would uplift spirits during long cold winters and rainy days. So I wished they would do the same here in Moscow, instead of having all these greyish concrete blocks of buildings. Moscow is a perfect example of constructivist architecture, anyhow, here the Kremlin is an exception (ouf!), only because it belonged to the Csars.
Enjoy the view!
I would recommend seeing this panoramic as well, it was taken in 1908, from the other side. Interesting how things change with time. Public Domain picture I found in Wikipedia, author:
"Pathé Frères" company (France), Director: Joseph-Louis Mundwiller, filmed in 1908, Release Date: 9 April 1909 (USA), Panorama created by Alexey Mironov in 2008.
Beautiful panorama, Cony! Truly. Nice work!
