I likes seagulls

they are everywhere

Markus

I hoped the spring would come soon but it snowed again today. It is all gray outside.
Tänään satoi lunta jälleen, ikkunasta suodattuu sisään harmaa maisema.

Markus is a great friend. In return to all his kindness I took a few pictures of him on a ping pong table. Such a beautiful boy.
Kiitoksena Markuksen mahtavasta ystävyydestä otin muutaman kuvan hänestä pingispöydän päällä. Nättiä.

I have no words left to say.

A land of equality, beauty and knowledge

Up: Pekka Haavisto campaigning in Helsinki

Down: Details from a painting by Riikka Ahlfors

Some may ask why post a photography of a president candidate with a photography of painting. I don't know how the artist herself will vote, my reason to post these together is different: when i look at this painting i think of diversity and texture. When i look at Pekka Haavisto i see the same things.

It is time to elect ourselves a president with experience, a man who represents the new and open Finland. My intention has been to post only material of my own in this blog but I guess you have to do exceptions once in a while. Enjoy a nice little video by the Green Party and vote for number two.

Raise your glass for the ending of a long holiday

Cheers. I'm back.

SCHWEEDEN

 

Everything from pagan rites to queer statues. A good trip indeed.

Soft, silky and smooth

I haven't been out with the camera so much these past days so i dug up a few older pictures. At times, just like today when the weather is just awful, soft tones and colours warm up the whole atmosphere around you. As if the pictures were candles.

My way to deal with the cold, wind and rain is to escape to Stockholm for a day. Looking forwards to nature photography: this species "fennicus aquarius" or "Boat Finns" are quite exiting!
