One of many for this couple.

Would have added one of Ronan Keatings tracks but deezer.com seems to have removed the option to embed selected tracks.

Edit: thanks to the help forums at deezer a song was "manually" added.

Contre-jour with ice crystals

The backlit tree is staying frosty (around -6°C in the morning I think) despite the warming rays of the sun.

Thunder over Pallas

Scoo has posted a doc:

Shot in July from one of the two summits of Pyhätunturi (lit. 'Holy Fell'). Since Finland is rather flat and what mountains we have have eroded into fells, a sight such as this is not that common. Quite different from Norway and Sweden for example.

Our campsite was to the left in frame; a polarizer would have been snazzy.

Pallas en français.

Market square commerce

Shot yesterday (20.11 -08) at the northern end of the market square in Turku.

Nowadays there's just about this one row that sell potatoes and such, these are also the most "low tech" ones of all the sellers at the market. Apart from these there are about ten stands selling fish, pastries, fruit and the like (these stands are often electrified and heated). Not so the case for these people.

Feels good to purchase their produce as there are no middlemen (today I purchased 0,5 kg of red onions for 2€/kg). This kind of enterprising is on the decline, most people buy from supermarkets (usually older people and immigrants buy their goods).

Sunrise over the Atlas mountain range II

Another shot from our honeymoon last year, this time in colour. Tourists on an (almost) dry salt lake.

This series (from the desert/inland of Tunisia) is one of the few series I shot in RAW which certainly pays off later on. JPEG may save card space but is a lot more limited when one wants to correct exposure or white balance.

Wet and dark...

...and three (oncoming) cars.

was out hunting for nocturnal shots of Turku for a joint exhibition held by a local photography club, this was one of the grabs of the evening.

Urban fever

It's super!

Made using a scavenged lens from a Yashica Mat that was later discarded due to fear of fungi contamination of my "proper" lenses.

Five fells

Scoo has posted a doc:

Five fells in one frame (Kellostapuli is actually part of Ylläs, so one could say that only four fells are shown in this image, check the note).

This and others were shot in order to measure the light for a roll of Velvia 50 (a roll that I thoroughly botched). Shot from the fell Pyhätunturi in the Pallas-Yllästunturi national park.

A point of interest is the spruce to the lower right in frame that's distorted due to exposure to wind and snow etc.

11+1

---
Shot this while waiting for a gust of wind to liven up flags flown half-staff on the Cathedral bridge in Turku (attempted to get the Cathedral in frame too, would have needed a boat for that to be really successful). It's the shadows of pedestrians illuminated by sunlight reflected from the surface of the Aura river (further diffused through trees).

Had at first thought of naming it mother and child or some such generic name/theme but I find it illustrate recents events even better.

Canister, I-beam and crowbar

A new-ish shot from the archives, shot in April 2008 (my backlog is substantial) during the ongoing public works along the Aura river in Turku. Plenty of things going on.
