MOSCOW, RUSSIA: HAUNTING pictures of an abandoned Airforce base in Russia shows the power the Soviet Union possessed during the Cold War. The stunning pictures show a helicopter cemetery with hundreds of the fighter aircrafts lying in rust and ruin. Other images show the inside of the forgotten Russian Air Force Academy with uniforms, equipment and even the remains of a fighter jet left behind. The shots were taken by Russian amateur photographer and urban explorer Sergey Root who seeks out abandoned places to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life in Moscow.
