2-day trip. View from mountain.
PS.!!! There are more photos in the first comment!!!
This huge bowl was carved by man in the array of marble formation, born at the bottom of an ancient sea nearly two billion years ago. Its gently sloping and steep marble cliffs reach a height of 25 meters.
This is an old quarry of stone mining, which had been developed almost for three centuries. Today, it is a favorite place for lovers of historical heritage and “collectors” of natural phenomena.
The sides of the canyon are penetrated surface and underwater adits, drifts and mines. In one of the walls of the quarry there is a marble grotto – an important landmark of Ruskeala. It is possible to get to the grotto but only by water, using a boat.
The crystal clear lake is surrounded by green spruces and pines in summer, and in winter – the sparkling white snow gently covers marble, shimmering in the rays of winter sun.
The “Underground Lake”: this dip over the underground horizon was formed in 1928. It includes a set of adits, unique acoustics, a possibility to look into the depths of the marble designs.

But... I'll be back... :-)) SOON! 😊

I drove to the southern tip of Emäsalo in Porvoo, Finland to scout locations for nighttime photography. I also wanted to test my new Cokin Nuances ND256 filter (8 stops). Sun was shining and the weather was unusually warm for November.

laizak: Tämä on kyllä mun lempparipaikkoja. Heinäkuussa pitää antaa linnuille pesimärauha, mutta nyt on taas ihan tyhjät kalliot. Liki pari tuntia eilen istuskelin upeassa säässä ja kuvasin välillä. ❤️ @punaisissakorkkareissa
instagram.com/r.i.s.photo: Niin rauhoittavaa ja kaunista!
aniitairam: Upea! 🌌🌌

I visited Isosaari ("Big island") on a windy day. The waves on the Gulf of Finland were hitting hard the rocky shores of the island. The connection boat was in trouble while trying to get to the pier.
