As the weather in Helsinki has been rather terrible this week, I haven't bothered to head out for the purpose of new photography. Instead, here are some more photos that I had previously prepared for publication: The Silja Europa departing Helsinki West Harbour on the evening of 3 August 2013. Photographed, once again, from Sisä-Hattu. Click on the images to see them in larger size.

| The dry summer created foliage that looked rather autumnly even though this was taken in early August. |

| This photo, on the other hand, looks very summery, even though it was taken on the same day. |
