The winter weather was perfect for my recent visit to Helsinki. The sky was blue, there was no wind and it was not too cold.
When I return it will be almost summer. I will see a completely different Helsinki.

I love the early morning light in winter in Helsinki…time for a walk to Esplanadi.
The harbour was waking up slowly.
There was still some snow at Toolonlahti.
Spring is not far away, but I love the winter landscape.

Winter weather doesn’t keep tough Finns inside.
Here are some gentlemen enjoying an outdoor activity.

I never miss an opportunity to walk beside the water at Toolonlahti. In December 2013 it was unusually warm and there was no snow.
On another day the light was completely different.

It is minus 25 in Helsinki this morning…a bit cold, but I headed off to the harbour to catch the sunrise.
It was worth getting frozen fingers and toes for this.
