Deserted ancient street in the center of Moscow
Looking at this picture, it is impossible to believe that this is a real street in Moscow, besides being in the city center. Few Muscovites even knows that there is such a wonderful place - Krutitskoe courtyard, where you can come and walk among the ancient buildings, enjoy the atmosphere of old Moscow. I walked across the street and this amazing correspondent telephoto.
