Tallinn, Estonia

One of only a handful of images I was able to capture in Tallinn, Estonia, on a day-trip in August 2014 from Helsinki, Finland. While I was eating lunch, the sky opened up and down came torrential downpours for the rest of the afternoon. That day, I learned my camera had weather sealing, while my rain jacket had lost its impermeability.

Towers

The stately buildings in Tallinn’s old city can make you feel as if you’ve been whisked back in time. Captured this view from a church tower in August 2014.

March of progress

Historic Tallinn, with the modern city behind it. This image was snapped back in August from the tower at St. Olaf’s Church.
