Hello Yellow

Flowers

Yellow is the colour which is closest to light. We associate the rays of the sun and the stars with it. It is the radiance of the spirit.

Looking for Signs of autumn

Landscapes, Nature

It was one of those perfect Finnish autumnal days which occur more frequently in memory than in life.
adapted from P.D. James

It was Sunday again and it was sunny again, we went out of the house again. Lots of repeats! Last time we went to this place, it was on the Storvik side in the spring. Now in autumn we are on the more rocky side, in my opinion, at Kopparnäs. Lovely place, not crowded this time, families and couples strolling the seaside. In this post, I have photos from the forest and our walking campions, our two grandsons.

Mount Charleston

Landscapes, Nature, Travel, Traveling US

This place is about hour and half away from Las Vegas and it baffles me that even the locals do not visit it that often. Lovely , cooler nature sanctuary form the hotness of the town. Mount Charleston, it was on the second day of our trip that we decided to refresh our memories from this place. It was worth the drive. We drove to Mt. Chaleston lodge that is hidden at elevation 7,000 feet among the juniper and sweet ponderosa pine of Kyle Canyon.

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.

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.
