Smolny Complex
Uploaded: January 30, 2018 | Entered: January 30, 2018 14:51:28
The Smolny Complex was founded by Empress Elizabeth I in 1748 as a monastery and convent as she had intended to take the veil at the end of her rule. She never did. It is a five- domed, turquoise and white complex and one of Bartolomeo Rastrelli's greatest works. Could not get them to move the tour buses.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
