The Wide Open Blue
Before going back to the grindstone from taking my daughter to school, I took these photos at the lakeside. It was sleeting. Edited to bring out the different shades of blue better.

The grey building is a malthouse owned and operated by Viking Malt. Large quantities are produced for export.

The district of Niemi.

The islands I shot yesterday.

The tip of the cape in the district of Niemi. Niemi, by the way, means _cape_. In fact, the name of the city, Lahti, means _bay_. Laconic and unimaginative names like that are typical of this region. According to a stereotype, the people of the historical region of Tavastia tend to be laconic and taciturn.

An island in the middle of the lake.

It's starting to sleet heavily. I'd better go now.

The photographs look great and it won't be long before it changes again. It looks peaceful ,yet cold. In the first photo is the water frozen close to the shore line because it is shallower?

All of the lake is frozen over at the moment. My guess is it will be completely free of ice maybe four weeks from now depending on weather conditions, of course.

I can't believe it is a year since I saw those pictures last year. It will be summer again soon for all of you and I am sure you can't wait. I understand why you spend so much time outdoors in the summer months as you are making the most of it.

I like the look of the island in the middle of the lake. By the way, do Tavastia mean something?

You mean the name of the region? Tavastia is the Swedish and also English name of it. I think think the name is that of the noble family Tavast. The Finnish language name is HΓ€me. It may be related to the Baltic-Slavic root <i>zeme</i> meaning land. But I'm not sure about any of this.

I was curious because you shared the meaning of Lahti and Niemi, the origin of places names is interesting

The first two photos are quite dramatic! 
It’s funny how a single tone of colour could create such a mood of reality!!
