july in helsinki: talvipuutarha.

I have finally got developed the film roll I took while my sister was visiting us in Helsinki: two weeks have passed already since she left but in my heart I still cherish the lovely memory of those days together. during that week - which flew by too fast for us - I have brought Emi around the city trying to show her some places she hadn't yet seen in her previous visits. I took my faithful Nikon FM along during all our little field trips and in the next few posts I am going to share some of my favourite photographs of those days.

at the winter garden - Talvipuutarha:

Nikon FM - Fujichrome Provia 100F

funnily enough the best time of the year for visiting the winter garden is late summer - when all its beautiful roses are in bloom. I discovered Helsingin Kaupungin Talvipuutarha a little less than a year ago and came back many times ever since: my sister hadn't yet visited it though and I thought it best to show her around the garden on her first day here - when she was still a little tired from traveling. isn't a garden the perfect place to relax? Emi looked beautiful among those roses! ♥

P.S. I hadn't used any reversal film in a long time and I was pretty pleased with the results I got from this Fujichrome Provia 100F - the colours turned out perfectly.
