Hide and seek

Water

More like "Limonaad" to me.

Doors vol. 3

Here is another set of the wonderful doors I found during one session in Narva mnt. 89 dorm.

More to come...

Calm vol. 25

Love. Love. Love it. Love it all.

Free foundation

I think this is the weirdest or off the subject posts on Tuesdays, which usually portray something connected to the buildings, rooms, constructing etc. But then again brick is the most common and most known piece there is to know about a house.

Maria's father

This is Maria's father. One of very special fathers I have ever met. He is just so different in a nice way, almost like an angel sent to walk among people. He often speaks figuratively so you have to be sharp to understand him. A humble and a lovable guy.

My warmest greetings to Maria and her father.

Red vest

Another, not so fast dog from the dog race.

Winter wonderland only happens in my dreams

Yes, I love winter. I love the winter wonderland effect. Now it is all gone, survived only on photos and in my dreams.

Doors vol. 2

Here is another set of the doors, which are kind of quiet and shy, but wait for the rest :O

Calm vol. 24

I mean isn't that one nice and calm moment with a bike and all those gods by the bin, put there by somebody who wants to get rid of them.

Building

One of my favorite shots from Barcelona. Have been waiting to post this. Beauty of building and calmness of the end of the day.

Dave Benton

Dave Benton is what you may call Estonian miracle. We do not have many colored people here, I hope I am not wrong when saying maybe 50 altogether and that number may even be too big. Anyway he came to Estonia in the end of the 90's as he married his Estonian wife Maris. He was living before that in The Netherlands. 

He has been active singing at concerts and private parties. He is mostly known by winning the 2001 Eurovision contest with fellow singer Tanel Padar, while he couldn't speak or understand Estonian at all. By now he can speak plentiful of I am sure. They say he can speak 8 languages.

I do not know him personally, but the little interaction I had he left a good impression on me. Some say he is arrogant about some things he has said out...well, who knows..

Rhino

Last years best photography exhibition experience for me was at RMK's (local forest management company) lobby, where I saw Kaupo Kikkas' exhibition called "Treescape". It was truly an experience, but while enjoying that I didn't dream of seeing a rhino as well. Unfortunately the rhino had passed at Tallinn Zoo in 2011 and they made a stuffed version of it. Which looked just amazing and so real, you wouldn't believe that it is not alive.

Annapolis sunset

Had one photo of this moment, but this is way better. I am telling, sunsets in Canada are breath-taking.

Doors vol. 1

Perhaps you remember my November post about Narva mnt. 89 dormitory? Well, I called it vol. 1, as I thought there will be others following, but not exactly. There will, but under different name. I apologize once again for another vol.-series, but I do not want to overwhelm you with so many same style photos at once, so I break it to many little parts, which together form a long series.

The doors of Narva mnt. 89 dorm. These are what I liked, thought are creative, crazy or just cool.

Calm vol. 23

Christmas and New Year seem to fall to history now. Soon will people give up the Christmas lights and those who still have Christmas tree indoors, will take it out.

This year I would love to burn my tree.

Vana Kaubamaja

I have been waiting to post this literally for a year, as these shots were taken on 13th of January in 2014.

This what you are seeing is history. That building called Vana Kaubamaja no longer exists.

The site of the new department store or mall has changed greatly. I will introduce you soon how it looks now, almost a year later.

I think people take many things, buildings included, often very granted, but everything that surrounds us has history and memories. But then again, why to keep tight to all when one day we will be history and memories, too...

Kadri

While we were in Pärnu and enjoying the bay and the fall evening.

Bad J

Bad J aka Raivo Pedanik, as it is written in his passport. He is another nice DJ I met while doing nightclub photography. He is, as the previous DJ Defkut, into R&B and urban-music. He is originally from Pärnu, but that you wouldn't know if you just know him a little :P By his skills and energy he is putting to his DJ-work you can tell that he has been doing that for some time, actually from 1992 already.

One thing I can tell about Bad J is that he is the greatest and the best poser for photos. The best shots were always of him. I have been using one portrait of him for years and years in my training presentations, so he is often on my mind. Anyway if you ever can choose a party you want to attend, then tr y to go to a one where Bad J is playing.

I have another, my favorite yet to introduce at one point, also an R&B DJ ;)

Northern lapwing

The northern lapwing (Vanellus vanellus), also known as the peewit or pewit (imitative of its cry), green plover (emphasising the colour of the plumage) or just lapwing (which refers to its peculiar, erratic way of flying), is a bird in the plover family. It is common through temperate Eurasia. It is highly migratory over most of its extensive range, wintering further south as far as north Africa, northern India, Pakistan, and parts of China. It migrates mainly by day, often in large flocks. Lowland breeders in westernmost areas of Europe are resident. (Source: wikipedia.org)

This is the best I have got so far of the Northern lapwing, as they are shy, as most of the birds or animals in the nature, so catching them on the fields, where they really like to wander around, is a good catch. Not this time though.

Winter in HDR

Doesn't look like one, I think.

Reflections

Cool set of reflections and many layers of life.

Calm vol. 22

Surprise, what I found on my Christams tree today. Oh wow!

Merry Russian Christmas! Which was yesterday by the way.

Droplets in Rakvere

They have some amazing new architecture in Rakvere. Here is one good example. Imagine this!

Shadow doesn't really work, but eyes do.

Tartu in winter

Another shot of the winter beauty that surrounds us. I am happy to have a nice winter. Makes all so beautiful.

Annoying

These cute dogs are very annoying. The one on the right wants love, but the other is jealous. They bark at night. They howl when EMS cars are passing. They do not get love, they do not get to run, their pee and shit smells. Their life needs a change. Love and hate, right?

Trees and twigs

Taken during Christmas Day.
Amazing how light is changing and how therefore the subject changes as well.
Love photography.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hope you find yourself on this page sometimes..often..every day ;)

THANK YOU!
