Early Evening Walk

Took a walk about an hour ago. Pictures below. Used my iPhone to take the pics because it was raining and I didn't want the camera to get wet.

The forest walk begins.

The iPhone's camera app doesn't know how to adjust the color saturation to adequately capture the overwhelming greenness of the forest floor. I had to edit this with Darktable to adjust the color saturation of the image to accurately represent what I saw.

This tract of forest has no economic use like most forests in the south of Finland. In fact, there are very few places in the southern half of the country further than five kilometers from the nearest forest road. The north is different because it is much more sparsely populated and because a much larger proportion of the land is owned by the national government. There are several large national parks in the north.

Let's go up the hill. It'll get the blood flowing.

The roots snapped like twigs. The tree most likely fell during a storm.
