Our magnificent nature!

The nature is the most important thing in peoples life!!
 .....and especially the water!!!

One photo tells more than a thousand words....

Anyway I would like to tell You a few things that I find important to express through my photos.

Firstly, I want to show how beautiful, meditative, therapeutic and healing our nature is! It is especially today when depression and burn out symptoms are becoming the biggest national diseases in the western world. I know from my own experience that nature is the best therapist we have! We only need to go and look at its beauty, listen to the silence, experience its power and harmony, and through that we can find peace in ourselves.
The nature is allways real, true and honest... and present!! 
And if we are not always able to go to nature, then a nature-picture will convey these same sensations. I have received a lot of positive feedback about my photos and about their relaxing and calming effect, some have even said that their soul has started a new life through my photos!

Secondly, I want to stop people with my photos and make them think about the importance of nature in our lives! I am very worried about the state of our nature and especially about the wellbeing of the Baltic Sea and the Archipelago of Finland as well as the overall quality of the water. Without pure water a human being cannot live, neither can any other creature! So now it is time for us to understand that a human being is part of the nature!
The nature is our home, and the water is the elixir of life!! 
In fact we have only two choices from now on, either we continue the same way as we have done so far, then the Mother Earth will probably be destroyed, or we have to learn very quickly to live ecologically in co-operation with the nature. I believe and hope that we choose the latter alternative even though it might require radical changes in our way of living and thinking. I also believe that we will find new nature-friendly energy forms to help us.

In conclusion I would like to say that I have often been asked why I do not photograph contaminated nature, but I think myself that the thing one focuses on will increase...I want to focus my work on beauty and positiveness!!  

All my photos are “organic”, they are all taken on film! I do not manipulate them and I do not use any colour filters, only the colours and the lights of the nature. On my site You can see only some of my about 50.000 photos, but I hope these pictures give You an idea of the beauty and the energy of the nature.

All my pictures are for sale, so if You want to have a picture of the beautiful nature on Your wall, please contact me!
