FDT #283 (rolling down the hill)

The original picture from year 1970 by Simo Rista that I was trying to replicate: www.helsinkikuvia.fi/record/hkm.HKMS000005:km0000o0im/

 

This was just a quick one although I originally hoped this spot would actually be kind of nicer to replicate. When I started browsing those original pictures with FDT shots in mind, it was spring and the threes didn't really have any leaves. As they blocked the view less, more things that have not changed were visible.

 

Oh well... At least this one shows the changes quite well: The trees have grown! And I wanted to do this spot today because it was cloudy and the original is taken on a cloudy day as well.

 

This is on my regular route to/from work.

 

Safety note: The small road is for pedestrians and cyclists. There is very good visibility downwards. Visibility to the other direction is not quite as good, but I counted seconds how long it takes from when a cyclist appears to my view from that direction to when he/she is aproximately on the camera spot... It took a bit more than the 10 second timer I used.
