New Beginnings!

 Live birds are purchased in the market and to be are released for cosmic merit. Thai people believe that emissions are released in live birds and fish. Releasing them you  are considered for forgiveness. Or so we were told by the locals.

While visiting a small island in Koh Yao Noi we saw these men in the market buying “forgiveness” a new beginning…

You can find beauty in a day full of hazy fog…if you look for it.

Challenge is: Exploration!

This was one smelly exploration to a fish market in Negombo,  Sri Lanka.

The Fish market was so far from the sterile shops we have here in Finland. This place had life, smells and tons of  fresh fish.

It was an experience I won’t forget

Inspirational light

Inspirational light

This Silence chapel at  Kamppi has inspired these pictures..

 Present are the light coming indirectly from above and the warm feel of the materials. The inner walls of the chapel area are lined with common alder planks cut to shape. The simple furnishing of the hall are made of massive ash tree. The silver cross at the altar was sculpted by artist blacksmith

Rhythem – my search for it

Rytmi – haasteessa oli tarkoitus löytää rytmiä valokuva kohteista. Ohessa minun rytmini, on jazzia, marssimusiikkia sekä hip hoppia…

Rhythm – the challenge was to find a rhythm in the photography subjects.. Here is my visual rhythms, , the jazz, marching music, and hip hop .

Minun yhteys maailmaan vahvistuu aaltojen rytmistä  ( pienistä laineista tai aallokosta)

… Onnellisuudessa  ei ole kyse intensiteetistä vaan tasapainosta ja järjestyksen ja rytmin ja harmonian välillä.

My connection to the earth is reinforced through the rhythm of the waves, (small waves or the surf)

  Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance and order and rhythm and harmony.

Peaceful

In this week’s Wild Weekly Photo Challenge, we’re challenging bloggers to get outside & photograph things in nature which make them feel peaceful!

I do not like winter,but  it is beautiful now that the snow has arrived to brighten the few hours of light we have here in the north, this scenery is peaceful in spite the fact that it’s freezing.

 Tämä vanha tammi puu on kuorittiin sen  kaarnasta, alta löytyi tämä luonnon tekemä taideteos.  Toukat olivat kaivertaneet sinne tämän hienon kuvion.
