Though I’m still working on my St. Petersburg post, I thought that I’d share with you one of my favorite aspects of the trip…looking at ceilings. Everywhere we went, the ceilings were as magnificent as anything else and consequently, I found myself looking UP…all of the time. Â Fortunately, I managed to avoid getting a black eye from all of the doors and walls I ran into (Silver Lining).
The ceiling reflected in the mirror was breathtaking!
Hollye,
I know what you mean about the Russian ceilings. I kept running into people because my gaze was always up. They were magnificant…especially the churches and the Hermitage.
Thanks, Patricia! Hermitage photos coming tomorrow. 🙂
Thank you for sharing those amazing photos you took of ceilings and walls….undoubtedly a look into some awesome buildings. Can you imagine the artisans standing on tall ladders to accomplish those designs? I loved seeing these almost as much as the flora and fauna of Santa Barbara.
Absolutely, Bonnie! I actually thought about the artisans a TON when I was drooling over the beauty. Thanks for your comment!
Thank you. These are beautiful!
THanks, Carolyn!
Incredible beauty.
Pete
Thanks very much, Pete!
Hollye, Your photography is amazing! I can't wait to see the St. Petersburg post. This post just whets my whistle! Melani
Wow. Thanks so much, Melani! St. Petersburg is tomorrow…
