It has been warm enough to melt most of the snow we got a week ago. Some is still remaining, but it is melting away fast. Lakes which got an ice and snow cover are opening up again, but their snow is disappearing slower than in the forests.
We went for a walk in the Luukki forests, visiting a couple of lakes. Not many people were about - one other family, some dog-owners, and one guy riding a bicycle. It was quiet and grayish, and there was even some fog thanks to the moisture generated by the melting snow. I'm not sure if any photos I took were any good, but at least they succeeded technically, as there was enough light coming through the cloud cover. Here are two photos taken at lake Väärälampi, "wrong lake". (Name is fitting as there are quite a few other lakes nearby.)

I like both, but if I have to choose, I take #2. It is ... liquid. Beautifully balanced trees and wonderful curves in foreground and lake. Pretty perfect.
Thanks - in retrospect, #2 captured the landscape quite nicely: languid, wet, reflective. The fog created a bit of mystery feeling to the walk in the forest.
