Afternoon in utopia
Summertime love! And it’s only May yet!
It’s difficult to take photos when the sun is shining. It sure is. It’s so easy to overexpose them when you can’t really see any colours well enough in the viewfinder…

April, spring?
These photos were actually taken today! Woohoo, I’m updating this quickly!
It was not particularly easy to take photos, because of the bright sunlight (and sunglasses I was wearing) I could barely see anything in the viewfinder, let alone on the camera screen. Quite many of the photos turned out overexposed. Oh well…
My dear friends, mallards, had returned. I’m quite sure they already regret they did.
I also saw some swans, but they were flying too high. Note to self: take that telephoto lens next time!

Winter, again
So, a bit of winter left until I move on to spring. These photos are from January and March, I seem to have been too busy to take photos in February. So, night photos were taken in March. Location is Tampere again. Edited some. Not much to say.

Christmas and New Year
“So this is Christmas…”
The night photos on Christmas turned out much better than the indoors pictures. And it’s also too bad that I’ve decided to list the photos in a chronological order…
New Year’s Eve and fireworks were a major disappointment. I thought I was in the best place in Hämeenlinna, but d’oh – that’s how many fireworks I could capture at midnight! Like… Five past midnight, shutter speed 10 seconds, and no fireworks – I guess most of the photos turned out like that.
But well, those were the holidays.

It’s the real December
Okay, here come the selected photos I took in December, both in Tampere and… here and there. Although there was snow, which I love, I seem to have concentrated on the sky a bit more. Oh well… Please enjoy.

A grey day in Tampere
November 25th was not particularly, eh, bright in Tampere. However, the natural grayscale is also worth photographing.
Although the conditions were not the most ideal, I think some of the photos turned out relative satisfactory. It’s another miracle that I survived the trip dry! (Considering the places where I was roaming…)
I’ve been photographing those Mallards so much that the next time they see me they’ll probably just flee screaming “no, not that girl again!”.
Tampere November 2009
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak… November?
The first post with some photos!
I spent the weekend of November 21st and 22nd photographing in the great outdoors. I had nothing in particular in mind, but it seems I ended up taking many photos with the theme “a dachshund on a rock”. But I blame it on the dogs for climbing!
The images are in chronological order. All the photos were taken around 2 or 3pm. All of them are unedited, mostly because I have little motivation for editing photos that I dislike to begin with.
One weekend can consist of many different colours.
