This is Pokrovsk, a small town located on the bank of the biggest Siberian river, Lena. A hundred kilometres south off Yakutsk. Every spring these wooden houses are flooded, but now they seem to be frozen together with the Lena River. Pictures taken on Dec. 17, 2009. When outdoor temperature was approx. -35C, and the wind was biting.
