Rostov-on-Don, May 18, 2018. This photograph captures a view of the Siversa bridge and the Temernik River on a clear but overcast spring day. The sky is covered with clouds, which gives the image soft, diffused lighting, devoid of harsh shadows. The atmosphere of the shot is calm and urban, with a slight touch of liveliness due to the movement of cars on the multi-level interchange.
The composition of the frame is arranged such that the Siversa bridge occupies a central position, smoothly curving into the distance. Its massive concrete supports contrast with the elegant lines of the roadway. To the right of the bridge lies the Temernik River, reflecting the gray sky and the greenery of the trees growing along its banks. In the background, city buildings are visible, including a high-rise building under construction, which emphasizes the dynamic development of the city.
The color palette of the image is restrained, with predominant shades of gray, white, and green. The concrete of the bridge and the cloudy sky create a background against which the bright spots of cars and the lush green of the trees stand out. This photo conveys a sense of the daily life of a large city, where modern architectural structures coexist harmoniously with natural elements.
