Olyeshi village.

The previous year I had the only chance to visit this place as road conditions proved beyond any psychiatric norm limits. Also, weather was unstable – the extensive clouds moving very slowly created unpleasant obstacles. The result you will see now. Nonetheless the series has its right to exist and may be displayed without any risk of entailing any shame unlike the previous one. Everything was taken in the manual mode with a couple of filters. I can’t remember the details, those were either CPL+gradient grey or CPL+skylight (L1A or L1Bc) – my typical combinations for landscape purposes.

The village hall again, some efforts were needed to vivify the picture:

This shot was named "Memories", since there is no remotest hope for revival any time ever: 

Belated spring, worse, I arrived too early: 

The same view after the sky cleared up, direction – westward:

To resume in summer.

My oldest series from Olyeshi. The entire series should be admitted to have been taken in the landscape and sometimes even auto mode, so it’s no wonder that the images quality is relatively low. Occasionally I managed to benefit from lighting conditions, nonetheless nothing can replace manual mode and editing. Later series taken in May 2017 was aimed at correcting the abovementioned errors. Hopefully road conditions this year would be more favourable to reach the destination again,  and weather would provide me with more opportunities to have a new try.
