Artist's Comments

An old Finnish river driver or log floater. Some generations ago this was a common way to move trucks from place to place in Finland, but nowadays only few people can do that and sometimes they perform in different happenings.
He was very skillful, but unfortunately got wet in the end. But he was the one who was able to stay on the truck for the longest time, at least for five minutes!

Took in Suomenlinna / Sveaborg.

very cool - I have never seen this!
thanks :) yes, it's a very rare thing to see even in Finland. I took this probably during Midsummer.
I like the subject in this, its quite interesting, but perhaps the composition could have been a little more interesting? Although it looks like it would have been kinda hard photographing him from the bank through the trees. I do like the frame of leaves though.
