Barrie this was taken near Kuusamo, on the Finnish/Russian border...and yes the bridge was very wobbly!

very nice atmosphere and setting, though i realise it might not have been, i think the bridge would look better straight

Very atmospheric. Are those paw prints in the snow?

Very different Rene I like it even with the slight kink in the bridge!

Hi Rene,

Excellent shot! That is a part of the world I am seriously considering visiting next year, mainly for Great Grey Owl's, White Tailed Sea Eagles, Golden Eagle, and Goshawk, then go back in the Spring for Osprey, Red/Black Throated Diver's and all the other wonderful species thay have there. Have you gone on a "guided" trip (Jari) or have you planned it all yourself?

Regards

Rob

Good to see you trying Landscapes Rene :biggrin:

Looks cold and wobbly. The lead in and monochrome feel is great.

Hi Rene,
Lead-in line works great here and the mist rising from the water really adds to the atmosphere.
