Spring colours Photo

Photographer’s Note

Here is another photo from Fiskarsinmäki hill, which I showed you in my previous photo. The wood anemones were in their full white glory.
In WS you can see another photo taken just a few hundred meters north from the hill in on a low-lying ground, which was once sea bottom. The birch is the dominating tree in that place.

God morgon Lasse,
A nice slope covered with "vitsippor" and trees, that form a graphical pattern. A fine blue sky behind and very attractive light green ground. A real spring conception!
Hälsningar

Hi Lasse,
Wonderful spring forest. In Poland you can find such images.

I'm getting onto the comparison value of different shots of the same place which are in WS. I find this shot much more dramatic in that it emphasizes the wood anemones. The shadows lend depth to the shot, so I am drawn into the scene more easily in this shot.

Good morning, Lasse!
Yes, that's spring! One nearly cannot show it more beautiful. You have caught a beautiful light here which gives additional interest to the scenery. Really beautiful!
Greetings from sunny and rather warm Westphalia!

Hello Lasse,
the white little flowers scattered on the ground make the whole scene look even more cheerful :) Actually, to me these anemones seem to be the most important element in this photo which is filled with sunshine and shadows.
And as usual, a very good WS compementary photo!
Warmest greetings from Moscow,
Elena

Hello Lasse,
This is magical! Wood anenomes were always my favorite as a child on spring vacations in Cornwall -- but I've never seen a carpet like this. I love the depth of your image and the gentle light and shadows. They invite one to explore -- and tread carefully!
Regards,
Mary

Together with the fine light this flowers carpet makes the photo lively and appealing, in spite of the quite uniform environment. It's so sharp and clear that every thin tree trunk is distinctely separated from the others, so creating a good sense of depth. But in my opinion the light is the main and best feature of this photo. I like the ws too, you are right it's complementary, where it's possibile to see the typical whitish bark of the birches.
It seems you are enjoying your walks again...
Ciao,
Donato

Ciao dear friend,
how beautiful! I would like to walk on this natural bloomed carpet breathing the air of the wood. I am happy to see that also in Espoo the spring has arrived.
Ciao, buona notte!

Hei Lasse,
Those tiny flowers are just the thing that turns everyday view to something special. Nice spring light too. Finally we've got more green day after day.

Hello Lasse.
An unusual coupling, the flowers and the forest.
Nice vernal shot, showing the waking up nature.
Best regards.
Bobo.

Hej Lasse,
Oh, this is my childhood once again. So many resemblances between Finland and Sweden. We used to pluck these white anemones and bring them home to Mummy (I'm talking half a century ago). These carpets of anemones are wonderful, especially when the sun shines through the filter of the still almost bare trees, as in this fine picture.
Hälsningar,
Gert

Ciao Lasse, great view of beautiful forest, splendid light and fantastic colors, very well done, ciao Silvio

Hi Lasse,
this is Scandinavian spring per excellence! Wonderful management of the light and very pleasant colors. In Schleswig-Holstein these flowers were not allowed to unfold their blossoms this year since it was too warm and the sunshine was too bright. TFS!
Warm regards
Harriet

Hello Lasse,

Very pretty and pleasant underwood that it is on this photograph that proposed in WS. I will like to lie on this pleasant flowered carpet. You managed well the light of this beautiful day what gives beautiful natural colors and brings an appreciable relief to the image. An image very resting, thank you Lasse.

With all my friendships and very good Sunday,

Jean-Charles
