Smolenskoye Cemetery

I visited the Smolenskoye Cemetery on a frosty New Year's Day. It rivals our Highgate Cemetery for atmosphere being mainly unmaintained and showing damage from the Soviet era. Up to 800,000 people are estimated to have been interred at Smolensky Cemetery before the Russian Revolution, making it the largest 19th-century cemetery of St. Petersburg.
The cemetery is the traditional burial place for academics from St. Petersburg University, actors, writers and artists. I am looking forward to processing these with Silver Effex and getting the best out of the files.
