looks awfully quiet in Helsinki.
Is it too cold to get out Maria? Except you and your sharp camera angle. :)
You know I love those black and whites.

Gina, I was delighted for the photo opportunity with this one!

Grace, na, only about zero degrees celsius (32 F) but it makes for depressingly cloudy, grey winter days. I was of course purposefully looking for the quiet moments like this ;-)

Anne-Marie said...

I love your black and whites too. I have a feeling we have the same winter choices- grey skies and not so cold, or blue skies and sunshine but much, much colder. I would opt for the sunny but colder.

I tend to agree with you Anne-Marie. Given that it's impossible for the snow to disappear overnight, colder and sunny is the best option. Although now most cold days have been cloudy here, too :(

It's great to see you expressing your visual talents so convincingly, Maria.
Keep them coming, I'll keep watching - and will feel lucky

I know I shouldn't be here, but just wanted to tell you how much I like these two photos. Both images of symmetry, but also of a kind of peace. Beautiful. If this is what you produce on grey days, I'm all for them!

E.L. Wisty said...

Thank you, Koos! xo. I decided that since outdoors is not offering much variety, I better go look for it indoors. And sure enough: if you look, you're bound to find.

E.L. Wisty said...

Val, well, I'm glad that you broke your "fast" for this ;-) xo

grace said...

...and you captured them perfectly.

when's that coffee table book coming out Maria?! ;)

Grace, there's so darned much to do! :)
