Ok, Helsinki nedwalkies round 1 : random scenes from downtown. Autumn in Finland is the “blink & you’ll miss it” variety so my timing on this trip was solid, the leaf changes have just started at the botanical garden. 🧵

The Tove Jansson park near Uspenski Cathedral. It just got a big revitalization & I’ve not been able to photograph it for two years. She created Moomins, and there’s now a small bronze troll-hippo thingy statue here now too.

Töölö Bay, a small inlet in the middle of the city. Leaves are starting to look nice in the surrounding parks

Looks like a painting! Beautiful pic!

I’m really glad you like it

It’s fantastic, pal! Such great views, thanks for walking us around Finland!

I MAY have new wallpaper? 🙌🏾

I've been using my favorite pic of yours for a long time now.

This is lovely, the colors are so elegant

Looking across the bay at the Paasitorni (Helsinki Workers' House, 1908). Finns love Art Noveau & you’ll find plenty
