One of Moscow's many iconic landmarks is the Ostankino TV tower, and it can bee seen here in photos that I made using both a mobile phone and a cheap camera in 2014.
The two spires.
Once the tallest structure in the world (1967-74), now just in Europe... still the 8th tallest in the world.
And I can't hold the phone straight... so it looks a bit like the falling tower of Pisa.
The Ostankino TV tower as seen from the Ostankino park in August 2014.
The photos below, I believe, are rare as they show a short-lived attempt to display an ad on the tower - that of Coca Cola as you can see. I took these pictures in November 2014.
It was removed soon after and now has only a generic light design showing the Russian flag.
The Coca-Cola bottle was spinning around the tower stem.
As seen from an empty supermarket parking lot in the early hours of August or September 2014.
More photos.
