These two policemen among with security guards kept onlookers away while the fire brigade cut down a storm-damaged tree in central Turku yesterday. I think their leather outfits are both cool in a way and also embarrasingly obsolete on the other hand. Su…

The main street in my hometown of Jakobstad/Pietarsaari, Finland on 25.12.2006. Fortunately a thin coating of snow fell on the ground the same evening which made it a lot more appealing. The heart is part of the christmas symbols of my hometown, consisti…

Fern "sapling" spotted on Ruissalo in the Turku archipelago. This is frame #38 of a 36-roll film so I got lucky, not the least that I passed by it when a ray of light fell on it.

Shot near the Halinen district of Turku. The building is used for drying fodder. The first and last roll of APX 400 in 120 format I'll probably ever will handle (re-branded it exists as Rollei retro and such). Would have expired 07/2008, got it for free…

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 on…

...in front of the Cathedral. The stairs and half of the square in front of the Cathedral of Turku are clad in Gerbera in different colours as part of a one-week long art installation (last year the Parliament building in Helsinki was covered in flowers)…

...or autostrada. Call it what you will, the traffic of cross country skiers and snowshoe-sporting types is plainly visible in the "pot" between the two summits of the fell Kesänki near Äkäslompolo, Finland.

Those who know me from my flickr days might remember this persian cat spotted in Stockholm's old town. Now in black & white though and a different crop.

A utility/sanitation truck washing the market square in Turku (the other part of the two-man team drives a truck with brushes and some form of vacuum cleaner equipment), the smell of fish was strong ;) Cropped a bit, aperture somewhere between 11 and 22…

Blogged here. While I'm waiting for a blue filter to do some "proper" RGB colour images from black and white ones I thought of making a red-green colour image. Two exposures, the first with a red filter and the second with a green filter with the two the…

...and no-one to play with. That's only during the weekends though, weekdays see the parking lot filling up. Shot through the bedroom window during an overcast evening. Full vertical crop of a 3:2 landscape frame, forgot mandatory sharpening. Seems th…

A ditch next to a field and a main road. See it large. Having been at a loss at what to upload to illustrate my vacation in July I chose one which represents Ostrobothnia, the region of Finland I'm native of. This is shot when the sun was setting over a…

...plus flocks of tourists, yours truly & wife included. First time I've experimented with a 16:9 aspect ratio. I overdid it perhaps with noise ninja (noise/grain reduction) in this shot, the salt lake bed looks very sterile, though it was in fact quite…

At the site of public works strenghtening the banks along the Aura river (here next to the city library in Turku, its pilasters can be seen to the extreme upper right). It does not conform to either of the two usual standardized types found in Finland; th…

An unshaven policeman guiding traffic as traffic lights were temporarily shut down during the annual Boy scout & Girl guide parade in Turku, Finland. When the parade was over, four-five policemen gathered at a kiosk for a much needed icecream (something…

Turku, Finland. Another benefit of the homemade tilt shift lens is that sometimes focus can be difficult to place where one wants it, resulting in obscure faces and human figures, which may even be beneficial for 'street-esque/street photography'.

Two security guards from the Hansa mall joking with two fellers with a German Shepherd. APX 400, rodinal 1+100 [24°C, 22 min]. A wetting agent bath might had done some good, didn't have any yet at the time when I developed this.
