Leaving just a memory

Today I walked for almost three hours at Torronsuo swamp and Liesjärvi National Park. It was foggy in the morning, changing the landscape. I saw three cranes, and tasted cranberries and lingonberries. After the fog disappeared, crickets made noise, and a lizard warmed up in the sunshine.

The scene must be carried on the tongue

The photographs were taken on August 13th at Myllyjärvi south of Luukki, using the new LX100 which doesn't have the dust problem, at least so far.

It has been several months since I last visited Oittaa, but I remembered the paths quite well. Last winter I walked there almost every week, and even managed to get somewhat lost a couple of times.
