& In honour of the month of December
“Just living is not enough… one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower” Hans Christian Andersen
Quote a Week Tuesday, 2015-12-08
Today’s quote seems quite apt for the time of the year, especially for us living way up North, in the land also known as Finland.
During this period, we usually spend our days in total darkness, starting from October and ending only in early spring months. But, for what ever reason, today, we had a beautiful sunny day and clear blue skies as far as the eyes could see.
Odd indeed, but also an excellent photo opportunity for us pic-snappers and a good chance to soak in a few rays while hanging outside (naturally, in the freezing weather 😉 ):

Market Trip
Took a quick trip
To the market
Almost flipped
Near the target
Needed a sit
Before the bargain
Charging circuits
To get things started
With all my wit
And whole hearted
Ready for fighting
For the bargain
In the discount market
In honour of the month of November

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!”

“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.

Trains, Planes, Automobiles and a Bicycle
On the open road
With a heavy load
A location in mind
Trying to unwind
Travelling on wheels
Has its appeals
But getting somewhere far
In only a car
Can be a chore
Changing the score
Picking up some wings
Has its wins
But if you want some style
And sail up the Nile
A boat or a yacht
Is worth getting stuck
If you want to do it old style
And travel with a big smile
The coolest way
With the hips in sway
Doing some recycling
Then, pedal a bicycle
