Tremendous feel. I too think the poor grain and colour refelcts the way of life out east in those bleak days.
The solitary car against the countless uniform appartments is significant.
And why is no-one admiring the view from the bench?
this is awesome... when did you take this? you don't see Syrenka's on the road too often any longer. the grain adds to the bleakness and reflects the mood of "kolchoz-style" projects in former Soviet block.
