Porvoo, part 3

This set of photos taken by my iPhone. Sometimes I wonder whether my iPhone 4S can replace the Canon DSLR? Because it is lighter and also take good photos with wonderful lighting, which I can carry any time with me!

Porvoo, part 2

Whenever I look at the set of Porvoo pictures in my computer, I want to flee away. There are many of them, as same as others sets of pictures lying around in the hard disk driver. They want me to get them out of there, to show them to other people, any of them; but my laziness and procrastination have postponed this action so many times.

Porvoo is a small town 50km far away from Helsinki. Because it places in the southern coast of Finland, those houses lay beautifully near to the water. The red brick wooden houses reflect to the emerald green river, it makes the scene so much country side, peaceful and romantic. Most of people speak Swedish there and the town has a very Swedish style. That explains why when I came here, I felt like I'm in a little corner of Stockholm.

Little cute things

My favorite flower hydrangea and the other flowers I don't know the names

Graceful flowers on the street

Helmi cafe.

I didn't see the sign that not allow to take the pictures outside the door, so I went there and took a lot of pictures until the owner tried to stop me. She asked whether I took for myself or to sell. I wish I can sell, baby :D. Lucky me, if I saw the sign from the beginning, I don't know whether I would take those lovely pics from the place or not. But deep down in my heart, I knew the answer already =)). Everything in the cafe is so photogenic, and I am photomaniac.
