The End of March: A Shore of the Baltic Sea

It's spring, late March, the snow melted long ago, although the leaves have not yet grown. The sea is quiet, as if woke up and enjoys the warmth after winter. Large smooth stones, polished by sea waves, are warm under the spring sun.



It seems as if the stones were rolling towards the shore, but were stopped by some force. Amazing views.






Dark wet tree trunks seem to be frames for pictures. A few boats and yachts were visible on the pier; perhaps the sea season is not yet open. I had been sitting for an hour on warm stones, enjoying the spring sun.

  2. It is really quite beautiful there, Nadezda. An impressive shoreline and the rocks looks so timeless. I am quite sure that I will never visit this part of the world, so I am happy to enjoy it through your eyes.

  8. Hello dear Nadezda, thank you for the beautiful, calming photos!
    The video is very interesting... and you have chosen some lovely music for it.
    I read about the new orders issued by the authorities of your city. Take care of yourself. This too shall pass.
    Thank you for noticing the swans stepping at the same pace. I found them funny too.

    1. Dear Sara, I'm glad you liked the music in my video. Yes, you're right, the quarantine was announced in the city. The quantity of disease cases in Finland gets lower and it's very good news.

  13. Hello Nadezda – it was lovely looking at the river and the outdoor. The video also made me feel as if I was traveling. Because of the virus I have been in the house for over 18 days so looking at your beautiful pictures was a treat. Now I do have more time so I went back and read all your comments and looked at your posts that I missed. I really enjoyed the photos of St Petersburg at night; such a beautiful city, and so much to see. I hope someday I can come back to see more of it. Your post on lace was also very informative, and the lace so pretty.
