I hide behind the golden door!

These photographs were taken at Vuokatti on July 3rd.

Today, inspired by Guardian, I tried writing a poem about Trump, but failed. Here is the attempt anyway.

You are fired, you poor!
I pollute the air you breathe,
and wreck the road to my beaches.
Storms torment you,
I hide behind the golden door!

You love how she only wears her glasses with you

The photographs were taken on July 3rd in Kajaani.

It is remarkable that the country that feels to be the most dangerous to the future of the world is the United States. Quite a change in six months or so.

And to tell the truth, if it shattered, what would I do?

The photographs were taken on July 3rd at Valtavaara hill in Ruka, Kuusamo.

Today I realized that when uploading photographs to Flickr a setting had changed, and the photographs were not publicly available for browsing. This happened some time ago already, and the latest 2,100 photographs were not visible to other viewers besides myself. I changed the visibility so that they are now available for viewing.
