Epiphany (Siberia - Tomsk) - 19 January 2012 [01:26]
Filmed in Tomsk - at -23°C !! ********* 19/01 : The Epiphany, celebrated in Russia and Ukraine on January 19, marks the baptism of Jesus in the Orthodox Church. Believing that on this day water becomes holy and is imbued with special powers, Russians and Ukrainians cut holes in the ice of lakes and rivers, often in the shape of the cross, to bathe in the freezing water. Participants in the ritual may dip themselves three times under the water, honoring the Holy Trinity, to symbolically wash away their sins from the past year, and to experience a sense of spiritual rebirth.

Крещение [03:20]
Волею судеб и пинком товарища, поехал со сьемочной группой в Сосновый бор,и наконец таки, залез в прорубь. Планировал три года кряду. Сбылось лишь в этом 2012 году. Эмоции сразу после погружения видны на 02:26. Сейчас могу сказать что стремлюсь повторить в следующем году. Ощущения великолепные =))
