Film Feb - Sveti Marko Beograd

St Mark's Orthodox Church Belgrade. I could see this church in the distance from my apartment every evening, so towards the end of my time in Belgrade, late one evening I drove across town and stood outside the church with my tripod and camera to get a few shots.

Belgrade is a place that comes alive late at night, numerous people walked past me staring and shaking their head in wonderment, clearly unable to figure out why anyone would be taking photos of the church.

I also went down by the river taking photos of the city across the Danube and Sava Rivers at Belgrade. Unfortunately, I also disturbed amorous couples in the bushes and parking in their cars trying to get a little romance.

The symmetry in this makes me happy! And to think you disturbed those important moments to get mere photographs!!! heh heh
I also like the graininess of this photo - is it supposed to be that way?

Haha, love the detail about the 'amorous couples'! This is a beautiful night shot, and why wouldn't anyone want to photograph it? I'm surprised there wasn't a crowd with their cameras.

Shoot the lab techs, was it Robert Capa whio got back from the Normandy beach landings and some dick from Kodak melted all his negatives in the lab? This is gorgeous though, I've heard of this church I think is it very famous?

but today with everyone owning a phone or camera, this would be photographed on a daily and nightly basis!

May I ask, if you recall, what your exposure time was? This is great.
