How much did you pay for it, if I may ask?

Simple and effective, very nice colours and light. Regards George +1.

This is great! I like the treatment that reminds me of old masters' works of this kind.

My reason behind was as follows, Nuri: "the Swedish name for this Finnic people (their name for themselves was Sabme), which probably originally was an insulting coinage (cf. M.H.G. lappe "simpleton"); but in Eng. traditionally the home of witches and wizards who had power to conjure winds and tempests.":D:wink: It just occurred to me to look up a dictionary for lapland.

I mentioned that as a different and interesting aspect that I liked, David. It's a kind of signal that shows the end of the patch that belongs to the house. Another interesting thing is its shadow that points down and far out of the frame. And in between you see the village below. That's how I see it and I like it a lot.:lol:

Very nice, indeed!

Great light and great shot!

I agree with Jim. Is it already spring there? How nice!

Different close-up portrait. I like the disinterested look.

A fringe for the face! Good B&W! I like the framing and the contrast.
