White trees

We savored our morning coffee early in Oulu. The distance from Helsinki to Oulu is 607 kilometers / 377 miles. In November, it was dark outside, because dawn will come about at nine of o’clock. At break of day, we saw that Mother Nature had painted trees to silver white. The view was amazing and surprising, because day before there was fog. No sunshine, thus it was cloudy which meant that sun should not warm trees quickly and the beautiful landscape should last at least few hours. So, it happened, because next morning the same situation continued. My set of photos consists of 24 photos of which, last four photos shot my wife by her smartphone at sunrise, when all the nature had a golden appearance.

En español:

Árboles blancos

Tomábamos nuestro café de la mañana temprano en Oulu. La distancia desde Helsinki hasta Oulu es de 607 kilómetros / 377 millas. En noviembre, era de noche, porque el amanecer vendrá acerca a las nueve de la mañana. Al amanecer, vimos que la Madre Naturaleza había pintado árboles blancos plateados. La vista era increíble y sorprendente, porque el día antes había niebla. No fue soleado, por lo que estaba nublado lo que significaba que el sol no debería calentar los árboles rápidamente y el hermoso paisaje debería durar al menos pocas horas. Así sucedió, porque la mañana siguiente la misma situación continuó. Mi conjunto de fotos consta de 24 fotos de las cuales, las últimas cuatro fotos sacaba por mi esposa por su teléfono inteligente al amanecer, cuando toda la naturaleza tenía una apariencia dorada.

En francais:

Arbres blancs

Nous avons savouré notre café du matin tôt le matin à Oulu. La distance entre Helsinki et Oulu est de607 kilomètres / 377 miles. En Novembre, il faisait noir, parce que l’aube arrivera à neuf heures. A l’aube, nous avons vu que Mère Nature avait peint les arbres blancs d’argent. La vue était incroyable et surprenant, parce que la veille il y avait du brouillard. Aucun soleil, donc il était nuageux ce qui signifiait que le soleil ne devrait pas réchauffer les arbres rapidement et le beau paysage devrait durer au moins quelques heures. C’est arrivé parce que le lendemain matin, la même situation a continué. Mon ensemble de photos contient 24 images dont, les quatre dernières photos sont tirées par ma femme par son téléphone intelligent à l’aube, quand toute la nature avait un aspect doré.

Em português:

Árvores brancas

Nós saboreámos o nosso café da manhã de manhâ cedo em Oulu. A distância entre Oulu e Helsínquia é 607 quilômetros / 377 milhas. Em novembro, estava escuro, porque a aurora chegará às nove. Ao amanhecer, vimos que a Mãe Natureza tinha pintado árvores de brancas prateadas. A vista foi incrível e surpreendente, porque no dia anterior havia o nevoeiro. Sem sol, por isso estava nublado, o que significava que o sol não deve aquecer as árvores rapidamente e as belas paisagens deve durar pelo menos algumas horas. Isso aconteceu porque na manhã seguinte, a mesma situação continuou. Meu conjunto de imagens contém 24 imagens, incluindo os últimos quatro imagens são tomadas por minha esposa por seu telefone inteligente ao amanhecer, quando toda a natureza tinha uma aparência dourada.

Lieve, lieve scende la neve
in un candido modo di cristallo
con dolcezza nel cuore discende
ricordandoci di bimbi
un antico passato

queste immagini, sia nel bianco-nero, che nel colore sono la superba certezza di quello che Madre Natura ed una ottima sensibilità fotografica possono donare alla vista
grazie mille Matti e felice nuovo giorno

Very beautiful! The golden trees are just magical – like straight out of a fairy tale. For that kind of sight here in Poland , I’ll have to go to some forest outside the city..

  Yes, winter arrived indeed. Couple of weeks ago Helsinki (in the south) struggled with cold and snow in Oulu (600 km north of Helsinki), which You saw in my photos, came in one night and it was a little. I will tell to my wife that You loved her photos very much. Thank You for Your praising comment.

So beautiful the white snow and all the rime on the trees! I particularly admire the close ups. Such a filigree character! Your shots are great, Matti – and simply incredible what the sun is doing with the trees at the end of your photo set, when you added the four photos that Anja has taken. Gorgeous!

Have a nice evening and thanks for this wonderful winter post.

  Thank You. Concerning Portuguese, we were lucky, when living in a small town called Mikkeli, because there were Portuguese courses hold by a charming Brazilian Lady. She was very inspiring and the best language teacher, which we have ever had. I always try to do my best with translations, because she has ordered my blog.

      You are right. Learning languages keep our brains fresh! I am glad that You have learnt Spanish. When speaking a foreign language, it is ideal to travel in a country one speaks. There have been “funny” situation on our travel. Once in Guatemala on a tourist trip in a boutique, I heard sales persons saying between each other that “Gringos” are coming, let’s praise prices. I told in Spanish, that we are not Gringos, but tourists from Europe from Finland. They were embarrassed. Well, it happens. 🙂

Like you I overhear them often saying not very nice things about tourists, germans especially, but unlike you I don´t tell them everytime that I can in fact understand every single word they say 😉
