A rebirth of wonder

I'm still very much behind in going through my photographs, but here is a sample from Thursday, which was a sunny day, and I went for a walk with my oldest daughter to lake Kaitalampi in Luukki. We discovered something new there, and returned to the same place on Friday.

And in dreaming myself upon the moon

Well, here are photographs from earlier this week. Today I took quite a lot of photographs, and there are photographs to be processed also from yesterday, but I just didn't have the time or energy to go through them.

My identity is this expanse!

On Tuesday I went skiing to a nearby lake. There was plenty of wind, and some snow in the air, so that the ski tracks were soon covered under snow. But the wide expanse of snow was bright, despite the rather thick cloud cover above.
