Peter from Paris, France

Easy to understand... but winter can be nice also! (November is perhaps a bit dull up there.)

@Peter: Thank you for your comfort, perhaps we will get snow this year already in November as in those old good days, that landscapes could be a little lighter.
But the summer went so quickly, are they going faster and faster every year ??

Rakesh from India

Excellent picture! Are those trees birch?

15 Oct 2008 8:23am

@Rakesh: Yes Rakesh, they are! Very, very common tree in Finland.
Thank you for your interest!

Jean-Michel from BRUSSELS, Belgium

Very nice ambiance, I can feel "The goodbye" of the summer with the position of the sun.
One thing is still to come...... The colors of the leaves.
Cheers ;-)

@Jean-Michel: Thank you Jean-Michel !
Our autumn is already so far that all leaves have fallen down.
I wish you red and yellow leaves and beautiful photos about them!

rays of light are so attractive and draw me to go toward the source of light after the trees which seems mysterious now

@hajar: You write like a poet now :)
Thank you!

Niin kauniisti se aurinko sieltä pilkottaa tiheään metsään. Kivoja pikku taloja kanssa.

Huh, kun säikähdin suomen kieltä, oletin heti, että nyt tulee huomautuksia siitä ja tästä jne. . .jne, pitäisi muuttaa sitä ja pitäisi . . , ei jaksa vanha moista enää !!
Kiitos, ettet pahemmin sanonut, nuo mökkeröiset kuuluvat asiaan, leirintäalueelta kun kuva on otettu.

This is such an amazing depth, from the tree in the foreground (clever!) to those way off in the distance dancing in the light. Beauty!

Very nice! I love the shadows of the trees coming right into the monitor as the light breaks through! It looks so pleasantly warm but i am sure its colder than it appears!
