Worldwide | Saturday, October 16, 2010 | flickr photos

My name is Katya Pavlova, I am 25 years old and I live in Moscow. I am an engineer of landscape construction and landscape design. Love for the beauty of nature, and just the beauty led me to photography and travel. I am active, and have lot of energy. I really like to register changes - in people, life and nature, which occur when changing the place where you are - city, country, continent. I really want to learn how to pass my vision of the world, to share emotions and experiences, to tell stories with my pictures.

Let me tell you a little about the serie. Location - Vyborg, Leningrad Oblast, Russia. The shooting made in early autumn - in the past and this years. The town has a complex history - he belonged to many, passed from hand to hand through the battles and wars, but persevered, survived and now it is ours - the Russian one. In it, I somehow feel keenly the zeitgeist, the connection of times, and despite the signs of the present day, filled with a medieval city in spirit, the time which passed. That's why my serie is called - Vyborg - where the Middle Ages remain.
