Now Autumn’s fire burns slowly along the woods and day by day the dead leaves fall and melt.

Forest Health
I often find peace and calmness in the forest, a great place to gather your thoughts. Have a spiritual moment 🙂
Forest Health, is not only a Finnish luxury, I am sure it is recognized all over the world. Shinrin-yoku, as they call it in Japan, is a famous way of spending time in nature. Research has shown that people who practice forest bathing , exposure to forests and trees gets these benefits from it: 1. boosts the immune system 2. lowers blood pressure 3. reduces stress 4. improves mood 5. increases ability to focus, even in children with ADHD 6. accelerates recovery from surgery or illness 7. increases energy level 8. improves sleep
I went to a forest…

Mountains covered with snow in June was a beautiful sight in Vancouver, the beauty of the nature has left me a lasting impression.
Forest therapy
This forest, hill behind our home is an easy place to escape to nature. We can see it from our house and watch the season change. At the moment I am waiting for the green to push through and brighten this place. I do like that there is so much evergreens here. Moss, pine trees, spruce. it is forest therapy just steps away. Happy Easter everyone, stay safe and take care.
Sunset
Beauty, majestic nature. Just beautiful, sunset at sequoia. All unedited photos 😀.
Before the thunderstorm
I was sitting in my backyard watching the clouds gather into the intense blue gray color. I took these just before the thunderstorm was above us.The temperature dropped three degrees in just s short while…got to love Finnish summer and the amazing 17 C degrees of warmth.
Grove
Midsummer celebrations are over and we are now officially losing light, but not to worry there is still plenty of it. Today I went to near grove woods and lakeside in Vols to take some photos of the beautiful greens we are surrounded with this time of the year.

December #10
it is all green and cloudy, but wouldn’t this be lovely, I does not look to promising that we will have snow anytime soon if you look at the forecast . The theme of blue and white continues
December #7
walk continues
I love these crooked pine trees that the wind and weather has shaped.
the walk
As we arrived we had to walk through old woods, and rocky paths. As the wind mostly blows from the sea nearly all the trees lean towards inland. The first part of the walk is rather dark and this area has lots of fallen down spruce trees. They are left in the woods to decay as nature intended so the nature will continue to be as diverse as possible.
A sunny day
the path we take
Walking in the primeval forest in Linlo Island in Kirkkonummi. The path we take leads us to very varied nature types. Here are few that we walked.

Spruce forest
I walked through the thick grown spruce forest, there were places hardly any light came through. But a glimmer of light surely brought life to the place
Autumn colors from October
October weekend in the country
The autumn has reached the point that this weekend we closed our summer home for this year. What a beautiful weekend it was, sunshine and nice temperatures. the sunset was amazing in its glory( an other post ) I took time to walk in the fields and document the colors.
