Кольский монохром

A serene yet powerful winter scene unfolds along a partially frozen river cutting through a dense, snow-draped coniferous forest. The overcast sky casts a somber, diffused light, enhancing the monochromatic tones of the landscape. Ice forms intricate patterns along the riverbanks, while the trees stand stoic, their branches heavy with snow. The image, captured by Dmitry Medyancev, evokes the quiet isolation and raw beauty of the Kola Peninsula’s harsh climate. The composition balances stillness and subtle motion, as dark water flows beneath the frozen surface, creating a timeless, contemplative mood.
