Maikop, Adygea, Russia


       
        It’s a sunny day in winter. And the sky is beautifully clear and blue. Standing right ahead of a spacious square, you can see that the floor of this square is paved with numerous pale yellow and some gray tiles. There are many tall trees, few white street lamps, and some green benches (something of that kind) on either side of the square. The trees on the lawn are almost bare of leaves. And because of the cold weather, some leaves turn red. The most special sight is that the sun’s ray from the left side peeks through the trees, and the trees cast very long shadows on the ground of the square. For me, the shadows just look like an intricate pattern.

        In the middle of the square is a big and round fountain. However, the fountain doesn’t squirt water. Look further back, there is a bronze statue of a man erected in front of the fountain. It seems that the black statue is very tall compared to the two people next to it. On the left side of the square, near the fountain, there are some cute pigeons resting on the ground. Moreover, you can see just a few people sitting on the benches. They are either having a rest, or basking in the warm sunshine. Finally, far behind the square, there are some exotic style of buildings standing across the horizon. It seems that the two-storied large house with lots of white pillar and windows are painted in deep red color. In addition, there are also some trees planted in front of these buildings.

        This place makes me feel an atmosphere of peace and calm. By the way, maybe the tall statue is a kind of monument. And I suppose it was built in honor of someone. Hope you enjoy the picture!


        Have a look at the picture. :))
