This is the icy top of the Lakhta Center 👀

Petersburg photographer Anton Galakhov published pictures of the top of the Lakhta Center tower, which was covered with hoarfrost due to night frost. Photos are available on Galakhov Instagram.

The photographer filmed the designs of the "Lakhta Center" from the drone. In other photographs shot from afar, hoarfrost is not visible. As Galakhov told Paper , he took pictures on the night of January 15, when there were 18 degrees on the street. “Idem covered the iron structures of the weather station. As far as I know, the spire itself is heated. Because of this, he is not covered with ice, ”he explained.

Galakhov regularly removes Lakhta Center. In early 2020, his two black and white photos of the skyscraper entered the short list of the Monochrome Awards contest. In January 2019, Galakhov also posted photos of the icy peak of Lakhta Center.
