The photographs were taken on November 12th.

This morning I walked two hours in Petikko. I saw two moose, but they ran away before I managed to take a photograph. Later on I met a hunter with a rifle, who was quite talkative, telling about the flooding in the forest and about the best routes. I kept silent about the moose.

The photographs were taken on November 9th in Helsinki.

For tonight the weather forecast promises a little bit of new snow, perhaps 0.5 cm. It would make the landscape somewhat lighter.

The photographs were taken in Helsinki on November 8th.

I commuted by bicycle. There was ice and gravel on the road, making it challenging even though I have studded winter tires.
