photographs from oulu VIII.

this is the last post dedicated to our winter trip to Oulu - last but not least as the ones below are possibly my favourite photographs of the whole stay. the day we walked along the Oulujoki river Jacopo and I finally got on top of a very high bridge: from there we could admire the most spectacular reflections on the icy water - not to mention the mystical steam hanging above the river. it was an astonishing sight - which I am still not sure if my photographs are able to represent to the fullest.

I will be back home in Helsinki on Monday night and I will try to get the films I have been shooting here in Italy developed as soon as possible. hopefully I will have some nice photographs to share of my lovely italian holiday in just a few days! ♥

    The first one is my absolute favourite of these! Water, ice and snow look wonderful in it!
    I also love the blue colour in the last picture. The picture is not black and white, but black, blue and white! :)
    Welcome back to Finland! Waiting for your Italy pictures!
