Lakeside

Lakeside

Theme day. My favorite part of town. Has to be the lakes at Rudan. A recreational area only one minutes walk from the commuter station in Handen. If you like the outdoors this is the place for you. In the summer time people come here for a swim, or sunbathing on the cliffs, or at the beach. In the winter you can go ice skating on the frozen lake, or try ice fishing .It' s also very popular with skiers. I am here on a weekly basis. I usually go for a walk or a bike ride around the lower lake. It's also one of my favorite places to shoot portraits as there's often some sports activity here and this is also one of the places used for the Haninge Day celebrations.

I love the combination of winter/summer shots - really shows the amazing variety of activities that go on around the lake at various times of the year. Your portraits are wonderful. I wish I could approach people for portraits the way you do !

At first I thought you could not decide about your favourite place but then I realised that it's obvious: It's the people! And what beautiful people they are, too. Nicely done!
