April

We spent a day at our summer housecleaning after winter. I have to admit the first time you go there in spring time it is always a bit disappointing as everything is brown, and gray. No leaves on the trees. Hopefully in a months time it will be something different again.

Lakeview

After my walk, first taking in the beautiful fall colors on the ” big”road,  to enter the small roads between spruce forest, I arrived to this lovely lake view. It was a glorious October morning, all quiet and still. This were my first shots as I came to my destination – a peaceful moment by the lake.

Foggy Friday

I was driving in the countryside and once again stopped at this lake in Vols as I’ve done many times before, it looked different as the fog was there to do its magic. This Foggy Friday looks good in pictures.

Landscapes from Ruuhijärvi

Yesterday was according to the weather forecast the last warm day(+24C) for a while. In the evening in turned grey, and today the temperature is only +6C andskies are grey, looks rainy. Not too happy about that. Summer does look great at this time of the year here in Southern Finland.

Life of a dandelion

Past week the weather has been great here in southern Finland, I’ve spent my days outside. Sunshine and warm temperatures, what  a bliss. Today it has rained and I’ve been posting my pictures taken this past week. This weed is lovely ,it is summer, but a pain in the garden. Here is the story of dandelion – as I see it. From beginning to end.

The Weekend in Black and White

We have no snow here in Southern Finland at the moment, but these are taken about a year ago. White Xmas is just a wish this year…but these seemed appropriate for the season to create Christmas Spirit.
