There is a silent uplifting beauty in this picture, it could almost be an image of the dawn of time, when the sun rose for the first time. Beautiful.

Bel: You just caught the feeling I had when looking at this fantastic photo, I just couldn't put it into words.

Looking at this month's slideshow, so many of the pictures have a primal, almost alien quality to them with anything modern (eg ship, person walking dog) being almost invasive

Niklas, again I must comment on the beauty, composition and quality of your pictures. This one reminds me of walks to and through Uutela that I enjoyed while visiting my brother. At the time (Jan-Apr 2008)he lived in Cirrus Tallo. Thanks again for your pictures. I am glad to have found your website. By the way, I am from Ohio, USA.
