012 - orange

This is my 12th photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. I have taken this photo a long time ago with Samsung Digimax S500. The theme of week 39th was "Orange".

This is a typical view in Finland. I told before that fall is really amazing season here with all those colors. It's totally true. So if you will travel to Finland, do it in this time. It's really worth it!  :-)

I took this photo some few years ago (I don't know, maybe 2007 or 2008) when I was visiting at my grandparents. They have just amazing garden. I used to walk barefoot and pick beautiful flowers. I'll never forget when I got lost to their meadow which was full of sunflowers. When I looked up I only saw the sun and amazing flower. I felt like I was in fairytale!

Hope you like this! I really do because every those lovely moments spring to my mind!

P.S. I'm really happy right now. I had the last exam on this morning. Yep, I just had a terrible exam week (luckily the next one is on February 2011!). And now I can write some posts again because I have finally time for you guys! :-)

011- fall

This is my 11th photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. I have taken this photo on September 15, 2010. The photo has taken with Canon IXUS 100 IS.  The theme of 38th week was "Fall". 

Fall is really beautiful in Finland (especially in Lapland) with all those golden, yellow and red leaves. It's also my favorite season. Well, the girl behind umbrella is my nine years old sister. We were photographing fall colors which are really beautiful right now. I like all the colors of this picture from galoshes to leaves. Hope you like it too!

P.S. I'm really exciting right now. On October 1 is my 17th birthday and on October 9.-14. I'm finally in beautiful Barcelona! It has been my biggest dream ever - and it came true! Right now I'm in the seventh heaven :---)

P.P.S. I'm really, really sorry that I'm late with this challenge. I have had some school works so that's why I've been very busy. I'll post those expired posts slowly :-)

010 - doorway

This is my 10th photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. This photo has taken with Canon IXUS 100 IS, on September 15. The theme of 37th week was "Doorways". 

I just took this picture at last week - so, here you are and hope you like it! :-)

009 - expressions

This is my ninth photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. I have taken this photo a long time ago. It was maybe the Summer when I was about  14 or 13 years old. The photo has taken with my first own camera, Samsung Digimax S500.  The theme of 36th week was "Expressions". 

Yep, that's me. I like this picture very much. I like those colors and my freckles. I think my eyelashes look like wings - LOL! It makes me smile - that was a happy summer :-)

Here you are, hope you like it too!

008 - red

This is my eighth photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. I have taken this on this morning (on September 27) when the sun was rising and the moment was amazing! The photo has taken with my Canon IXUS 100 IS.  The theme of 35th week was "Red".

Hope you like it!

007 - green

This is my seventh photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. I have taken this photo on July, 2008. The photo has taken with my first own camera (Samsung Digimax S500).  The theme of 26th week was "Green".

Our cat, Laku, gave birth four kitten on June, 2008. We named them as Kerttu, Ernesti, Kaapo and Luna. Do not laugh because those Finnish names sounds really weird (lol!). That name, Luna, is an international name. That kitten in photo is called Luna and I named her because she has a little moon on her face. Luna meand 'the moon' in Romany. Think it's a very wonderful name! We gave Luna to my cousins. Sadly Luna has lost and nobody does know where is she.

Well, I taken this photo when Luna was outside at the first time. She caught some butterflies and was really alert and happy! Finally she didn't want to come inside at all :-)

Hope you like this photo, I really do!

006 - special

This is my sixth photo in the BIG Photo Challenge. I have taken this photo on August, 2008. The photo has taken with my first own camera (Samsung Digimax S500).  The theme of 25th week was "Special". I wondered a long time what can I introduce with this theme. 

Well, I was sailing on the Baltic with my family and cousins. It was a really beautiful and sunny day.  I remember that day when I'm older. I've ever been sailing before that day and it was something special to me. We beached  to a fishermen's island here, in Finland (well, those people spoke Swedish because Finland is a bilingual country). That island, Gullkrona, was really beautiful and idyllic island with a smell of smoked fish (I love that smell! Does anyone else?). It was like a paradise!  When we came back, is saw that sailing. It's my namesake, it's also Mirella. It's a first namesake I have ever seen because my name is unusual in Finland. 

P.S. Here is a photo which I've taken from that island.

P.S. For Finnish people: Täällä on tietoa tuosta lumoavasta saaresta, saari sijaitsee siis Turun saaristossa. Valitettavasti saareen ei ole enää avointa pääsyä :-(

P.S. I'm really sorry that this post is quite late. We haven't had an Internet connection during two weeks.
