Three times cotton grass

Same thing can be photographed in so many ways. This is cotton grass in a swamp late at night, by day and in black and white with a hooded crow walking across the field. One of the fun things in photography is the ways you can look at the world. Options are Limitless. (fine movie btw ;) )

Cotton grass, Eriophorum vaginatum (Tupasvilla in Finnish.)

Mess over chaos

Today I tried to make out something that should not be done. If you don't know how to do it, it will be just a mess. Every one of these shots are a chaos and a mess of many things at same time. Most of them don't have any clear point of interest. Still... I tried to make them viewable by using black and white techniques and composing lines combined with industrial elements of a power plant and out of service log floating channel.

Just say what you will, but I think I managed to get some interesting shots out of this chaos. I might be wrong too. :D

Now to the pictures!

Tsirp tsirp!

Spiderballs

Something "nice" found from the backyard. :)

Things you don't see

Acoustic ceiling.

Sometimes when you look somewhere you are "not supposed" to look, you find extraordinary things.

Some autumn in B&W

White on white

I just love the possibilities of snow and minimalism.

Into the light

Welcome winter - here comes the light!

Snow. It behaves very strangely in some lighting conditions such as in the following picture. Some could argue that the photo has been altered to make it such but the light was really this magical. In fact it was more than this! Foreground, where the light does not hit turns blue and the smooth light through the mist creates yellow tones to the background. This is the winter I love!

(although some might think different in -19 Celcius)
