Mannerheim statue, silhuette on Kiasma

The staute silhuetted here is Finlands war hero "Fältmarshalk"

Mannerheim. He led the Finnish forces in WW II against the Sovjet

Union. It's amazing that such a small nation as Finland could do so

well against the Sovjet Union.

All Finns feel a sense of patriotism when confronted with the

Mannerheim Statue across the Finnish Parliament along the "Mannerheim

Road".

This image displays Mannerheims statues shadow agains the Museum of

Modern Art in Helsinki, the capital that all Finnish soldiers fought

so bravely to defend, agains the Bear from the East.

Taken a February afternoon, at f1.8. I waited for the silhuette to

move towards the red windows, as a marker of the blood spilled.

I love your comments, wish more of you guys would wright a comment.

I will not accept any ratings under 3/3 without an explanation, and

will see this as ABUSE!

Thank you all!

Thanks!

I just like to ad that the image is scanned from slide fim, but not manipulated.

I took this image to honour Mannerheim thus all the finnish soldiers, as well as the Horse, the finnish tank.
