Scarlet Sails 2013
Sergey Melnikov writes: “Last night in St. Petersburg there was a holiday for all graduates, the famous Scarlet Sails. I got stupid and did not have time to climb onto the roof, so the photos will be straight from the thick of things. The police cordoned off the perimeter well and they were only allowed inside by invitation, although some graduates were clearly over 40 or even over 50.
