    • Hi Helen! Before the revolution there were about 50 churches in Samara. A great number of them were ruined during the 1930 th and some were closed and served as a "People culture clubs". So that churches survived and were restorated in 90-th. Alex.

    • Alex, been from Samara myself, I can only say - you touched my soul's hidden corners of love to this city on the bank of the Volga river. I am so jealous that it was not me, who took all these wonderful pictures. I felt I miss my home town more than anyone else. I love churches, old buildings, points of interest and tourist attractions, but most of all, you showed me again and again, how beautiful Samara can be in different seasons. Thank you for this gift (both views of Samara and gift of yours to be such a great "eye-catcher" of ordinary, making it look so luring and nostalgic) Yours, Mikhail.

    • Hi Alexander, now is my turn to congratulate you on featuring your really perfect and incredibly beautiful album. Be sure I noticed that each picture in it is made with love and warm feelings for your city - the attitude couldn't be hidden. I guess what you felt during the creation of the album because I had the same feeling when I visited my Petersburg and wanted to take pictures of its lovely and familiar places not as a turist but as a person who knows really there every stone and wanted to catch its soul and put it in his photo's. And, of course, the performance of your pics is excellent. Best wishes. Yulia (The Netherlands)
