Description Originally this photo was supposed to be updated at our Independence Day 6.12 but like always my thinks don't go like I have planed them to go. Especially wen there is nobody telling me to get thinks done. Lazy and busy me.

Anyway, at front of the picture is one of those hundred of (or thousands of, I don't know) memorial stones that we have here in Finland for those who lost their lives between years 1939-1945. Behind is Art Nouveau styled Oulu river church . (Please, correct me if I am wrong whit that style name.)

I have always honored those peoples who lived in Finland at that time. It have not been easy life wen you have first needed to survive from the horrors of war and after that rebuilt nation at the same time when all war reparations (US$300 million to Soviet union) needed to be paid. We were never occupied and we did paid our over big deb in eight years.

Long time no see... your dA gallery, I mean.

Lots of creative talent and brilliant ideas but this picture just stopped me. I find it quite encouraging to meet young people who care and show it in their art. My humble kudos to you.

This is something I might call an ultra-low-key photo. Had to close the blinds in my room to really see the tones : ) (and I have a calibrated monitor). It was worth the effort, the tones were a good match. Might be easier to view for the lot with brightly lit rooms and TN-panels if the tones were geared up a notch or two, though.

Liked the balanced composition of the different shapes very much.

Keep up with the good work!

Uuuh, ompa pimeää.. Tuolla ei haluttais kävellä noin pimeällä Jotenki kaunis sommittelu tuon muistomerkin ja kirkon välillä. Tykkään kovasti tuosta samettisesta tumman sinisestä, joka näkyy horisontissa.

Kuva kulma hävitti iso osan valoa. Ei siellä ihan nuin pimeetä ollut vaan ennemin sellainen perus kirkkomaan hämärä. Kiitoksia. Samettinen oli taivaan suomaa sillä aurinko oli juuri painunut nukkumaan. :]
