Winter in the city
Posted By: gawan, 12-13-2010, 04:03 PM

We have had exceptional amounts of snow this winter in Helsinki, love to take photographs! Believe it or not, but these are right by the edge of the central city, just choosing the right direction to avoid the buildings...

Heheh, the newspapers have been saying that there's a lot of snow in Helsinki. Seems it's true. Nice shots!

Yes, the last two are outstanding but there is something about the sky in the first one that really makes that one for me at least. Lovely job Georg.

Now that's why they call it a winter wonder land.
Great shots.

Fresh snow landscapes are so beautiful. The light in the last two, Georg, make them outstanding, imo!

Glad you like the first one, Susan, even if this picasa version does not show all the subtle colours I can see in the original...
