On the banks of the Neva River (St. Petersburg)

Imagine a day without the sun. It is, of course, there, but it is not visible. Low gray clouds cover the sky with a solid blanket. Frosty granite draws out your warmth. It is not helped by a strong, but persistent wet wind...

And you came out on the bank of a big river chained in this cold granite.

The river has not yet had time to be covered with ice. The current is quite strong here and the frosts are not so strong yet.

And a small Christmas tree in a flower bed cunningly reminds you of the approaching winter holidays.

Don't go down to the water. If you slip or get dizzy... cold water is waiting for you and you will not find warmth on these steps... don't get your hopes up.

But you can just admire the harsh urban landscapes...

Может быть вы заметили, что я сменил телеобъектив на широкоугольный. Для пейзажей с дальним берегом он подходит лучше.

Does the river get frozen in the peak of the winter?
that seems to be a big and strong river.

yeah, should always be careful walking near that river, one slip can mean a game over.

In winter, the river is covered with a thick layer of ice.

That would be really crazy to live... cities here would not be prepared.
