Taken on the beach on the westmost peninsula of the island Ruissalo just outside Turku. My thanks goes to Roomeri who showed me this part of the island.

Handheld at f/8-ish, Rodinal 1+25 for 7.5 minutes in ~20°C (not that good result).

Taken on Friday 2.1.2009 (DDMMYYYY) moments after Tree trunk and Contre-jour with ice crystals.

My first medium format shots for the year and the first attempt at shooting (expired 06/2007) Ektachrome properly (a previous roll was crossprocessed) together with a 81C warming filter.

Onwards into 2009

Today I took the earlier bus to Ruissalo and was treated to an amazing sunrise (the expression to be able to die a happy person after witnessing or doing XYZ comes to mind).

Quiet and tranquil, everything bathed in gorgeous warm light.

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

Went to the island Ruissalo today to get some wintery shots. This is one of the first I shot having got off the bus next to the Choraei spring.

Edible?

This young Barnacle goose doesn't bother with deep philosophical issues such as the question that goes with the ultimate answer and such, but rather ponders if a fallen maple leaf is edible or not... :)

The Dornier stalker

Scoo has posted a doc:

Today Roomeri and I went to the island Ruissalo (just off the coast outside the Turku harbour) in the hopes of grabbing some nice shots.

Here he is caught snapping a Dornier Do 228 maritime patrol craft of the Finnish Border Guard (and actually not just "a" Dornier but rather one of the two that the service operate). I was unable to get a shot of it as it was obscured by trees from my location.

Instead of going to a restaurant we celebrated our wedding anniversary by going camping to the island Ruissalo in the Turku archipelago. Kuuva is a pleasant place to be at when the sun is setting.

An infrared filter is a fairly cheap way for letting one's imagination loose, the effect of (near) infrared photography can be mimicked in photoshop, takes a fair bit of work though.
