“My favourite thing to do on this planet is to scuba dive” Buzz Aldrin

Favourite Photo Friday 2015 Photo Breakdown (2016-01-08)

Those of you snapping pix, know this to be a tedious task, since to be honest, they are all favourites of the moments they were taken, why else would you have shoot them in the first place, right? Trying to limit to just one or two photos is difficult for any post, but trying my best here from the several thousand photos shot and posted during 2015 😉

For this weeks Favourite Photo Friday posts, I have decided to walk through 2015 and choose a few of my most favourite ones during the coming weeks. Hope you enjoy the walk down memory lane of 2015 in photographs!

For this particular post I have chosen three sets of photographs in three separate posts:

* The Finnish Dream: The idyllic setting of living for a Finn, a cottage on an island near or in the capital area and in the warmth of never ending summer, of course!
* Lighthouses: Two lighthouses for this post; One from the island of Evia, Greece. The other one from the Finnish southern most archipelago, the Söderskär Lighthouse.
* On the boat: An activity very dear to me, leisure time on a boat, with images from Cyprus and Verbania, Italy.

Enjoy!

Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”

Favourite Photo Friday, 2015-12-25

This week I would like to share a photo which was actually not yet posted on my blog, rather only on Instagram. I have been trying to stay off my blog during this holiday week and take some time off during my short stay in the gorgeous island of Lanzarote, but it seems the blog has a will of its own and keeps whispering in my ear to post 😉

There was a special moment up in the sky this week in Puerto del Carmen, which I would like to share with you all. A flashy light kind of a thing (call it a UFO if you will :p) appeared from out of nowhere and stayed a while. It seemed to be shooting a light beam into the sun and making it shine even brighter, if possible. I managed to snap this photograph with my mobile phone while peddling in the pool; lucky shot I guess!

Enjoy!

For this week’s favourite photograph, I chose the one I posted for the Blogging U Poem a Day challenge, aptly titled “Camouflage”. The poem written for the same, can be found behind the related post link.

Enjoy!

For this week’s favourite photograph, I have chosen something from the Rhodes Island collection, posted in the World Wide Wednesday series on, you guessed it, Wednesday!

I have titled this photo as “Painter gone for a break?”

There is just something to be said about a black and white photograph, a colour one can never capture the finer nuances like a B/W can.

Enjoy!

“The King of Rock ‘n’ Roll
Elvis has left the Konebuilding”

This week’s favourite photo has to be the one of the Christmas ornament, or plastic Elvis, as I like to call it. The photograph was taken from one of the decorations of our office Christmas tree.

For this week’s Favourite Photo of the week, I have chosen not one, but two from my Wednesday’s World Wide Wednesday series, which presented the city of Porvoo in colour in two parts.

Depicted is the beautiful river “Porvoonjoki” and the slow relaxed living during summer time in the old town of Porvoo, Finland.
