This spring lake was discovered near Lahti, 'Finland's Chicago'. It's not because of the wild past of the two but instead because they both were big in the slaughterhouse line of business. @countrygirl reminded me of this in one of her earlier posts and I promised her to look up this picture. Now I finally took the time to do this!
This is an extremely rare view in Finland. It's a small lake 'built' on a spring and the 'emerald' like colour is very exceptional around these parts! We still do have clear waters in our lakes (Finland is called the 'land of a thousand lakes' but mostly I've seen these colours towards the Mediterranean.
I cannot emphasize it enough how magical it was, even though it was raining a bit. As the conditions were not optimal (mosquitoes and the rain showers), I'm definite I'll remember this place, its sights and smells for the rest of my days - at least I hope so! Come to think of it, this post serves also nicely as an awkward transition to my earlier post on the therapeutic effects of time spend in the wildlife.
Thanks for your visit,
be well everyone!
This picture is calm at first glance, but by looking more at it.i feel it has a lot of movement .. i have something in my mind couldn't find the right word in English to write here ,
Interesting point! Could you try and elaborate, please? In nature and art words tend to fail, you’re right. Perhaps I’ve accomplished something? The forest is never just a stagnant place; there are certain patterns following their rules unkown to myself but there’s constant motion in the cycle of life, the patterns as well as the visible, physical world.
For instance, some people find the sea calming. Having lived most of my life by two seas I can concur it has a calming effect but it’s never calm or quiet.
