This photo has been taken by my sister's camera in summer's midnight at Ivalo-river...
It looks so great, so I post it here:

The Golden Village of Tankavaara is just like Klondike of Finland. They found gold in there and boom, everyone wanted to go there for search of gold. My grandfather and his companions found the biggest gold piece of Tankavaara and they have a cottage there. We visited the World Championship of Gold Panning 2005 there.

I take those pictures tomorrow.

OK, I have the pictures!

Church:
Front
Side

Town Hall (or something):
Main entrance, the whole building didn't fit in the picture...

Cinema:
Isn't it huge?

Library:
The Main One of Ivalo :lol:

Border guard office (or something), home of one of the jaeger companies of Finnish Army:
Main building
Troop transportation vehicle Sisu

Other pictures:
Just another river view
Jörg-Look-Alike
Just another town view
Water Fountain
Sports ground

Enough for now? I have 46 pictures of Ivalo, but I thought it would be wise to leave something out. This would be just a flood of pictures...

Hey, that village is beautiful! I'd like to visit France some day just for those little villages. And Spain too. Unfortunately traveling abroad isn't possible for me for a few years.

Heh, a part of our best shop here is visible from this picture: "S-Market Vaskooli". It's our very own "Shopping Center".

It's been a while from my last post here.

I would have taken more photos of military equipment, but those Sisus were the only ones outside.

Wow, if I take pics even of a bridge, they arrest me and question me.

And maybe a fine of some twenty hundred bucks.

OHMYGOD , my topic is alive! :lol: Thanks to MetalAngel I didn't have to resurrect it myself. Oh, and btw if I can somehow get a camera, I could (in theory) go and travel through Finland and take some pics, but only (in theory). :D Really, Now we can see clear signs of spring coming , here in Ivalo. (Allthought yesterday, it snowed quite a lot.) The snow is starting to melt and sun is shining. Also, I can go icefishing soon :shock:
