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

The woods are a great to place to release stress, became peaceful. They say that 20 minutes is enough to lower your blood pressure… 5 hours a month is supposed to give you a healthier a less stressful demeanor. I buy this belief

Hiking in Porkkalanniemi
I’m participating in LetsBeWild.com’s Wild Weekly Photo Challenge. This week’s Challenge is: Hiking!
The area is characterized by the best of its rugged cliffs, at Telegrafberg , high on the hill is the best place to overlook the panoramic view of the open sea.In the rugged cliff forest there are five Bronze Age burial place (heaps). The cliffs are slippery and hazardous particularly autumn when it rains, it should be taken into account in moving in the area. In the summer it is a beautiful place to spend the day.
Nature – Black and White

This week’s Challenge is: Black and White!
I find that when photographing nature in black and white has to have good shadows and light all in balance, also I find that graphic shapes come out looking best. Tree trunks, roads, flowers with graphic shape…here are some of my shots.

Finland is Europe’s most heavily-forested country. Forests take over 74.2% of the land area.
There are about twenty indigenous tree species growing in Finland, the most common ones being pine, spruce and birch ). Usually two or three tree species dominate a forest.
Naturally pure pine stands are found in rocky terrain, on top of arid eskers and on pine swamps. Natural spruce stands are found on richer soil. Birch is commonly found as an admixture, but it can occasionally form pure birch stands.
About half of the forest land area consists of mixed stands. Rarer species are found mostly as solitary trees. The south-western corner and the south coast of Finland are touched by a narrow zone growing oak, maple, ash and elm.
