Льдинки

The Yenisei River in Siberia is cloaked in a delicate veil of frost and mist, as snow-laden branches frame the icy expanse. Drifts of snow and frozen fragments of ice, or “льдинки,” dot the river’s surface, while a soft haze blurs the distant horizon. The scene captures the quiet intensity of a deep winter day, where nature stands still under a blanket of white. Photographer Fomina Marina captures the ethereal beauty of the Siberian winter, emphasizing the stark contrast between the frozen trees and the muted, overcast sky. This is the Yenisei’s silent, frozen breath.
