With just snowshoes, rope and the inspiration to “create something beautiful”, a group of Finnish volunteers create intricate, giant artworks in the snow. The 160-metre long design in the 30-cm (narly 12-inch deep snow) is believed to be the Nordic country's largest snow drawing. IT consultant Janne Pyykko is behind the project, which began as a geometric image made up of interlocking circles drawn on his computer.
