Cold Winter Night

Cold Winter Night
by Yavor Michev


The frozen Danube River near Russe, Bulgaria. This phenomenon is rare, especially when the river froze completely. The picture is taken at dusk at a very low temperature (-12oC). To the right of the picture are the lights of the town of Russe, and to the left is the Romanian river-coast.I liked this contrast between the ice blocks in the river and the lights of the city, which from the sky look like a melted lava.
