[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Built on the peninsulas and islands of the Baltic shoreline, Helsinki is a city of the sea. Streets curve around bays, bridges arch between islands, and ferries carry traffic to islands farther offshore. The smell of the sea hovers over the city, and there is a constant bustle in the harbors as the huge ships that ply the Baltic drop and lift anchor.
The city covers a total of 1,140 square km (433 square mi), including 315 islands, with at least 30% of the metropolitan area reserved for parks and other open spaces.

Hello George!

I like colours and contrast in this image. The clouds are effective. By the way, if I remember correctly that house is owned by sailing club.

Have a nice day!
Anne
