I love the soft and sweet August light, the mist that comes after the rain and the colors of it. One again I spent a weekend at my summer place. I have gotten to the habit of leaving my computer home so I do not end up by mistake spending hours on it. These are from Saturday evening.
I had so many problems with loading the photos into the last post at least 4 attempts to have them in a gallery of my choosing. So I got frustrated and I’ve stayed away for four days. Let’s hope this post is easier. Suomenlinna is a lovely place to visit so I decided to share the joy with you – again .
Out time at summer cottage continues in warm and sunny weather. I love way this view change. These are taken in the afternoon , evening and night time the last on I took just now. The color and atmosphere is captivating at all times.
I took a walk on the gravel road and picked summer flowers for my deck 
It is that time of the year that you can spot some waterlilies. We spent few hours at Mustio Castle grounds. It is a place I yearly love to visit, one of the reason is these flowers.
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.
I had great visit to a cottage to see relatives visiting from Australia. 
Let the water flow
I love the beautiful Birch tree woods you can spot here and there, not too often so that you will be numbed to their beauty
Summer holidays are time to relax, we have spent time at our summer-house past week. The weather is very warm here at the moment, cannot complain really, but it is warm 🙂 This a clover field near our house, I’ve never seen field so full of clovers. It is rather beautiful sight
Lunch at Restaurant Scola in Barösund, Inkoo
This is one of the Wild flowers I spotted last weekend, The water avens / Ojakellukka
June is here already and I have been up to the same old stuff, taking photos of wild flowers and nature at my 
summer-house. Hopefully I will expand my horizon this month so I won’t continue with macro theme. Even though I will be posting macro’s, maybe a landscape or two between. Maybe be as bold as do a throw back Thursday…
Playing with my camera and trying to learn something new. I tried with several different settings to capture a splash in a glass, like they have in ads. Over hundres frames and even to get this result, was an effort. Many ice cubes was used and cold fingers for the assistant cameraman.
Old office at Strömfors Ruukki, I love these old buildings, the atmosphere in them. The textures and tones in the spaces.
Beautiful sunny summer day in Finland, such a treat, we have not had many of those this summer.
