Stormy outside

Posted in liperi (tags: candle, flame) | 1 Comment »

With a winter storm raging outside, the comfort and warmth of candles and the fire burning in the fireplace are so comforting. News from around Finland talks about tens of thousands of homes without electricity and running around the county during the day clearing fallen trees from phone lines, roads, and houses makes me appreciate the warmth of our home even more.

One ramble from others

About

Simply put, this is Ramin Miraftabi's photoblog. It is an offshoot of my main (in English) blog, randomfire.

I decided to start photoblogging to better challenge myself photographically. We've been publishing a daily photoblog of dog pictures (The Life of Jalo) since September 2004 but I wanted to branch out a bit. Originally I tried to adhere to the picture-a-day approach, but that didn't work. Partly because some days I ran out of time and other days I had good images left over. So now my goal is just to publish a new picture every day. It'll also let me play around a bit more with post-processing, which LoJ doesn't really do.
