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

Cities, Photography

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.

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 took so many photos of these fishing boat. Most likely you will be, enough is enough. Chapora river morning (31 of 68) Chapora river morning (29 of 68)

Total lunar eclipse 2018

s are also sometimes called Blood Moons because of the reddish-orange glow the Moon takes on during the eclipse and I can totally agree with that. I took these last night. We went looking for it like moon struck people, but it was not seen until late that night at our location.
