In the first part of the street photography of Yaroslavl, our subscriber Natalia noted an interesting detail. In the frames, she felt that the city appeared more layered than in real life. She is partly right, and the large focal lengths can be blamed for this. For example, at a focal length of 150−200 mm and above, an effect occurs that motorcycle owners will understand: the space in the frame seems to compress into a narrow tunnel. Additionally, I would note that when capturing a subject from a great distance, the scale of the surrounding space is smoothed out, creating a sense of parallax. This is a technical aspect.
Now for the facts: any city would envy the concentration of historical architecture on the streets of Yaroslavl. Sometimes it takes special effort to capture an interesting shot, but here, wherever you look, it’s a pleasure for the eyes. This is particularly noticeable if you climb to the central bell tower in the Kremlin (on the last tier, at one point, I felt like I would have to grease myself with oil to squeeze through those narrow arches).
I’m attaching another batch of photos. I’ll try to prepare material over the weekend about another stunning location measuring up to 150 m², where we were like kids, captivated for about two hours.
