A couple new photos

I took one photograph worth publishing in our recent trip to Miami and Turks & Caicos. The photo was taken on the second to last evening in Turks & Caicos, when the hotel had their weekly “come back soon” festivities on the beach. Sun was setting, and someone had already put the torches on fire. The Caribbean breeze was blowing ever so gently, moving the flame constantly. I took three frames, and one of them was pretty good.

When I went through my photos, I also learned that I haven’t updated my artistic photos for a while. They’ve been standing still from early 2005 — it looks like that I’ve changed my subjects a bit when Aapo was born, so the surrounding objects do not interest me as much as the boys.

However, I made one finding. This photo was taken almost two years ago, when I, Sanna and Aapo were visiting San Francisco and San Jose. We paid a visit to Muir Woods, and I took quite a bit of photos there. When I looked them again, this photo looked a bit magical. The red, almost lilac colours make the view wonderlandish — at least for me, as we don’t have that much of lilac stuff in our nature here in Finland.
