Monument in honor of Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space, when his Vostok spacecraft completed an orbit of the Earth on 12 April 1961. This monument, made entirely of titanium, is located in Moscow. [1073 × 1080]
The USSR has some amazing monuments. I really love how your initial perspective looks at the base, flows up to Yuri on top, and that visual translation morphs into an implied physical movement of Yuri blasting off.
