In the Dark

Last Weekend

A weekend away from the city. 

In the garden...

... in the sauna ...

... and with the family

  

It was much needed.

Now back in town, back to work.  

Baptized in Finland

Well, not me. 
I was just a guest. 
It was a little girl named Amalia, my cousin's daughter, who was the person of importance on this occasion. I had the honour to be there at her christening, and of course I snapped photos like a maniac, trying to capture this special and joyous celebration. 

This is the result - enjoy!

Weekend Snapshots

"Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep"

"Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not there; I do not sleep.

I am the thousands winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow,

I am the sun on ripened grain,

I am the getle autumn rain.

When you waken in the morning's hush

I am the swift uplifting rush

of quiet birds in curcling flight.

I am the soft star-shine at night.

 Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there; I did not die."
