The organizers are sure that even those who have walked along the street countless times will have surprises: will they recognize the familiar Neglinnaya?

Rodchenko Moscow School of Photography and Multimedia for the second year. Traditionally, it was attended by recognized masters of photography, as well as residents and guests of the capital.
