Finland, 02 August 2010 at 08:27 hours. As far as I could tell this bridge did not connect to any path. I found it whilst driving around some backroads in northern Finland. Camera details: 10-20mm, 1/3 sec at f / 22
Finland, 02 August 2010 at 08:04 hours. Driving near Kuusamo in northern Finland one early morning, I spotted this elk not far from the side of the road. I used the car as a hide to take a few photographs before it sauntered off. Camera details: EF70-200mm f/4L USM, 1/250 sec at f / 4.5
Finland, 02 August 2010 at 15:23 hours. A beautiful, peaceful scene in northern Finland. Camera details: EF50mm f/1.8 II, 1/350 sec at f / 5.6
Finland, 03 August 2010 at 09:19 hours. A simple, abstract from a lake in Finland. Camera details: EF50mm f/1.8 II, 1/90 sec at f / 5.6
Finland, 03 August 2010 at 09:22 hours. A mirror-calm lake and some lovely reflections of the pine trees in northern Finland - mosquito repellent essential on a day like this. Camera details: EF50mm f/1.8 II, 1/60 sec at f / 5.6
Finland, 03 August 2010 at 11:42 hours. Whilst on holiday in northern Finland, we rented a canoe to take us down one of the rivers. This fallen tree and the stillness of the river made for a pleasant scene. Camera details: EF50mm f/1.8 II, 1/180 sec at f / 4.5
Finland, 04 August 2010 at 20:05 hours. My wife wanted to see a wild bear and went along with a guide to one of the bear-watching hides near the Finland-Russian border and was not disappointed - she saw five bears that evening. I lent her my 300mm lens with teleconverter attached and she came back with some good images, despite the near dark conditions and 3200 ISO speed. Camera details: EF300mm f/4L IS USM +1.4x, 1/30 sec at f / 5.6
Finland, 05 August 2010 at 16:50 hours. Another mosquito infested lake in northern Finland, this time near our hotel. We were using a bbq hut beside the lake on our last evening. Camera details: EF70-200mm f/4L USM, 1/250 sec at f / 5.6
Finland, 05 August 2010 at 17:18 hours. A typically Finnish scene; a tree-lined lake, a boat and a lodge. The man sitting on the terrace had just emerged from a sauna and jumped into the lake - its what Finns seem to like to do! Camera details: EF70-200mm f/4L USM, 1/350 sec at f / 5.6
