Tornio Old Bridge

There are four big bridges in Tornio. One of those is this so called old bridge.

Place:   Tornio, Finland
Target: Tornio Old Bridge
Date:    10th of August, 2016

Camera: Canon EOS 60D
Shot: 1/13 sec. f/22 15mm ISO100

Editing: Sharpening, highlights, B&W conversion, cropping.

In my mind B&W works nicely for the old buildings and structures.

Midnight View

I took this picture yesterday on midnight from my balcony. Sky was quite dark and cloudy, but northern sky was still clear. Reflection of the windows give something special to the picture and feeling.

Camera: Canon Powershot G15

It's easy to see that days are already much shorter than one month ago.

Funny pedestrian traffic signs

This time something totally different. What would you think if you see this kind of pedestrian traffic sign?

Place: Haparanda, Sweden
Date:  28th of July, 2016

In fact this is in use in Haparanda City in North Sweden. Not alone, but under the real pedestrian traffic sign like this.

There are in use also few other funny pedestrian traffic signs around the city.

I like the idea. Humor can be used also to improve road safety.
