Strelkovo. Bridge over the Pochenga
Published on HivePostify by @evildeathcore · Sun Aug 16 2026
In winter, I tried to find this little bridge, but I was distracted by very bright light pillars. In summer, I found... well, just a little bridge, and that’s it. Fog as fog... field as field. The Pochenga river is generally like a swamp: there is no current, it's all in some kind of unsightly mud...
But what’s wrong with these places? Every time I visit here, I leave in some kind of strange state. https://sun9-69.vkuserphoto.ru/s/v1/ig2/oQ91vhnLH-g-higzg8UW5wDDbOdkYvHv3PaWKYq3NW92k335BOBaPqjOPGgg42HykwMDMQQhPsjcqaEb1Hq79tf.jpg?quality=95&as=32x21,48x32,72x48,108x72,160x107,240x160,360x240,480x320,540x360,640x427,720x480,1080x720,1280x853,1440x960,2560x1707&from=bu&cs=1280x0
There’s some kind of anomalous zone here. I thought it was connected to my past, and I’m connecting to it. https://sun9-59.vkuserphoto.ru/s/v1/ig2/uQP-G3MhgaZcpWfqMeZbKHHUmWcOsfXXyt0dco3yaGuu2z-ELe8PTLJwBV12C8ZM7sPsmMvSQsid-MGuJhfvS7QI.jpg?quality=95&as=32x21,48x32,72x48,108x72,160x107,240x160,360x240,480x320,540x360,640x427,720x480,1080x720,1280x853,1440x960,2560x1707&from=bu&cs=1280x0
But no, this place is completely different; I’m here for the first time, and it has nothing to do with the past. https://sun9-17.vkuserphoto.ru/s/v1/ig2/P6Fr9gfCvXlkp-TLKvuYm2-E313eySwkjNMTZf9isJYY6POIyMDaZa3EPXAqcgQlFiFaJWygZvnGfFsJDCDR.jpg?quality=95&as=32x21,48x32,72x48,108x72,160x107,240x160,360x240,480x320,540x360,640x427,720x480,1080x720,1280x853,1440x960,2560x1707&from=bu&cs=1280x0
Every time I take photos from these regions, I only take a few, but they’re filled with some special vibe. https://sun9-4.vkuserphoto.ru/s/v1/ig2/Q5RFYB513XSr2ADkb8LeldBjPA6mTalmTPkwED-VHc-ljKn3maJKl81bY5WCIBLxZQl4UaIauRiPo5TAyvBQPA0m.jpg?quality=95&as=32x21,48x32,72x48,108x72,160x107,240x160,360x240,480x320,540x360,640x427,720x480,1080x720,1280x853,1440x960,2560x1707&from=bu&cs=1280x0
I would to somehow get to the reservoir on the Pochenga River. https://sun9-15.vkuserphoto.ru/s/v1/ig2/CaLHiA6PBwnzECXRm3UdE4SZ7w9FWFWTgK7O0xWtmGZB7C49ZZt1DZScv0jBM1LHNa0xOGHOGYppmrJy8Z4R4v-.jpg?quality=95&as=32x21,48x32,72x48,108x72,160x107,240x160,360x240,480x320,540x360,640x427,720x480,1080x720,1280x853,1440x960,2560x1707&from=bu&cs=1280x0
Starting this spring (or even since last summer), I’ve been trying, both mentally and physically, to get to the village of Pochenga itself to take some photos…I’ve even been there…but so far, it hasn’t worked out. https://sun9-68.vkuserphoto.ru/s/v1/ig2/DargXXRUT4tvIxfROXnftpyRCWYOy3xBB2pKEj9M1Y2FRTHtdPRUv8plVnPP7SaPKk9M0X0qJ04y0xtinbnzXfhr.jpg?quality=95&as=32x21,48x32,72x48,108x72,160x107,240x160,360x240,480x320,540x360,640x427,720x480,1080x720,1280x853,1440x960,2560x1707&from=bu&cs=1280x0
Ok. I’ll explore these parts more than once.
