It is that time of the year again that survival is definitely on my mind. The all consuming darkness drains me. I will survive, I will drive into the mist and disappear….

How to survive November 2018~1

It is that time of the year again that survival is definitely on my mind. The all consuming darkness drains me. I will survive, I have sunshine on the horizon in December. Most likely most of my photos will be by my mobile as the darkness does not really invite you to take photos unless you are in a city. I do not often go to Helsinki, but the day we got the first snow, not officially, it melted ½ hour before it could have been mentioned as first snow. I saw it and for me it was the first snow of the season. I have to admit I was not thrilled about it. Helsinki railway station in the evening is what I will share as my first post for November.

Driving from Porkkala in the afternoon we passed this field with the woods in the background and a river with deep blue water. This sight appealed to me, mostly due to the light, the low light if autumn is beautiful. The lone walker on the road also caught my attention.

This has once been a great and huge shed. Even the ruins in the condition they are in at the moment are impressive, at least to me. After marveling it from the ceiling I walked inside and what did I see, have a look at the large perspective, details will follow.

Driving to Porkkala in the morning we passed this field with a touch of mist still visible. This sight appealed to me, mostly due to the light. Looking to two directions from the same spot the light was totally different.The low light if autumn is beautiful.

This has once been a great and huge shed. Even the ruins in the condition they are in at the moment are impressive, at least to me. After marveling it from the ground I walked up to the second floor… no ceiling left, but you can see how huge it has been.

I saw and photographed a burnt cow shed last week as I was looking to capture the beautiful fall we are experiencing this year. This has once been a great and huge shed. Even the ruins in the condition they are impressive at least to me. I will be posting shots of this place between my Autumn Vibes photos. I would appreciate your feed back if you also find this ugliness appealing, at least in photos?
