Russian ice sculptor Grigory Ponomarev adds the finishing touches to 16-foot (4.8 metre) high ice sculpture, which took seven days to be built and was crafted by four award-winning Russian ice sculptors using 12 tonnes of ice, representing Moscow's St. Basil's Cathedral during its unveiling in Trafalgar Square in central London, January 11, 2006. The sculpture made as part of a joint project with Moscow's city government and the London Mayor's office which saw the unveiling of an ice replica of London's Big Ben in Pushkin Square in central Moscow.
