Evening in Helsinki
The senate square in central Helsinki is dominated by the the Helsinki cathedral. The statue standing in the middle of the square seen to the right here is of Alexander II. He was Russian tsar but also grand duke of Finland and had a statue to him to commemorate that he had given Finland increased autonomy in the mid 19th century - before it diminished again.
This was shot in the evening on a spring evening with the sun slowly disappearing below the horizon and the blue hour just beginning.
For other photos from Finland you can look at my Finland / Suomi set.
You should watch this Large On Black since that brings out more details. My pictures aren't balanced for a white background and a lot of the finer details are lost in this small format.
