A very brief visit to Helsinki

2007.12.09
Sunrise on the Baltic Sea, taken during our early morning ferry ride from Tallinn, Estonia.

My first view of Helsinki after getting off the ferry.

We noticed these spheres are all over the place on the waterfront. Since we had no plan or particular destination, we just followed them along the harbour. That dark shape on the wall in the center of the sphere is me.

I really like this shot. I love all the squiggly little details, especially in the lower right quadrant.

My friend Helena takes a closer look at one of the spheres.

The air was cold and very still. The smoke from chimneys and factories was just going straight up.

A very interesting church... but what we really need was a public washroom!

Golden onion domes reflecting the setting sun.

Ahh... noting like a full moon in Helsinki!

Some quick impressions form around the harbour in Helsinki, Finland.
