My bicycle route to work goes right next to Hietaniemi cemetary, but it wasn’t until couple weeks ago, when I realised that I should try to take advantage of this fascinating area. At first, I was hoping to get great captures about small birds, rabbits and such. I was able to take couple photographs about those, but as I walked around in there, I became fascinated about all the old tombstones in cemetary and decided to start to switch from tele lenses to something wider. As I moved to wider lenses, I came to realise that it would make good location to experiment strobist (off camera flash) things. If you got interested about what I am talking about, check my new photo album about Hietaniemi cemetary and beach.

At first, when I saw the title, I thought that I don’t have anything for that would match the challenge. I found couple images from Lake Titicaca (Peru), where bunch of Finns went to swim, but they didn’t look like good answer to the challenge. I forgot whole thing for couple hours and wondered, if should rebel this stereotype of sunny beaches and post image about climbing wall, which ends into a lake. As I was starting to go through my archives for those rock climbers, I remembered that during my photo-a-day project, I had taken photograph of sandy beach in summer 2006. You can see that photograph on top of this article.
