The Winter Beauty

"Photography is a bridge between science and art. It brings to science what it needs most, the artistic sense, and to art the proof that nothing can be imagined which cannot be matched in the counterpoints of nature." (Ernst Haas)

I am sharing the pictures of my native city with you my friends. It is very quiet in the streets now. Odessa is a southern city and people did not get used to cold weather here. So when it snows here it is always a catastrophe for the city. All the traffic usually gets stopped and electricity is turned off. That is why there are just few people in the streets now. They go outside mostly on business and hurry home at once. Nobody is walking now. But you will not recognize my city in summer when it is full of tourists who come here to bathe in the Black Sea.![TAUOcq0YMvg.jpg]
