More Autumn Pics

Yesterday I walked around downtown and went as far as the river as it was a sunny day (though it was only 7'C). I also took a short video clip of the river and its surroundings. Finland is a land of thousands of lakes. You can find lots of bodies of water anywhere (lake, pond, river, you name it!). OK, without further ado, here are the pics. ENJOY them!!!









The above pic looked like I was in some forest, right? But I wasn't he he he...This place is right on the left side of the row of trees with yellow leaves. ;-D

Two pics below are the pics of the river in Sodankylä. The pics don't do justice to the real thing. I think you may see it a bit better in the video clip below he he he...









For some reason I fell in love with this row of green trees in front of my neighbour's house. They're just so PERFECT in my opinion as a "fence", don't you think so? I had to take the pic pretty fast 'coz the house right in front of this one had a big lawn and the dogs kept on barking on me while I stood in front of it to take this pic. YARGH!!! He he he he he...

OK, last but not least, the video clip:

  3. Oh those are LOVELY photos, Amel.

    I have come to love autumn here in Scotland. I love the colours of the trees and the smell of coal fires as it gets colder, and the way the cold air makes you feel so awake and ALIVE.
