Walk in the Park and a huge Minnow Slide!

in photography •  7 years ago 

Heyyo!

I've been going out for walks daily now since it helps me fall asleep easier. It might also be that I had a harder time doing that during the big downtrend a few days ago. If you read my post the other day I hope it convinced some of you not to panic about your crypto investments and to hold tight, those of you who did should've had a much easier time getting some sleep during the correction yesterday. :)

Thought I'd submit this photography post on a different timezone than the usual ones so it reaches another part of my followers as well. Summer in Finland is not long and we don't get too many sunny days so I thought I'd make the most of it with my camera, hope you enjoy them! :)


Heading to the park!

Awsomee !! liked seeing something different and the park is so beautiful. I felt like I was there. @acidyo

I am from Sweden and the summer spans about the same time as in Finland. It truly is very short, but the nature and light is beautiful that sometimes one day can feel like an eternity (especially around midsummer when the sun hardly goes down). I live in China right now but your photos makes me really want to go back to Scandinavia and enjoy the wonderful summer- thanks for sharing the photos :)

Lovely pictures, what a beautiful pond. I can't tell what that orange thing is in the picture of the bridge. What was it? I tried to zoom in and it looks like a propeller?

It was that Minnow Slide. :D

Great pictures @acidyo !

Feel the calmness in the fresh air. Great pond, theres a cool pic with a reflection there :D

Glad to see the correction and the good rest that comes with it, relief.

Have a good week!

Did you go down the Minnow/Dolphin Slide @acidyo 🤣😎

Haha, yes after I made sure no one was around. ;p

😂🤣😂🤣

Thanks for providing a refreshing break from all the stress around! All the photos are nice - the third and fifth ones showing the water bodies are my favorites. It is so wonderfully sunny at this time in Finland, and I felt like going for a walk myself. But the summer heat held me back.

I nearly thought it was something to do with Pokemon until you gave away the ting in the middle of the picture as a Minnow Slide!

Following you for some more interesting content!

This is literally the scene from the opening of my zombie duck thing. Bridge and all.

Also, what's with the weird sky colour? Blue?? Looks like your government has been putting weird chemicals in it.

Daily jogs made me feel good the next day. I actually feel irritated if I break my jogging streak.

Glad you take some breather away from your screen. You seem to be around All the time!

Glad I held on my investments! The turnaround is looking good on its first day.

Wonderful photos @acidyo! Photography and being out in nature can calm the soul. You should practice meditation or just doing simple things like thinking about your blessings before you sleep.. it will help calm you before your body tries to shut down for the night. Helps me a lot. Thanks, and I hope you are starting to feel better!

Wow! Beauty of these scenery has just kept my open. I am just so much excited waiting eagerly to next pictures to load... And it finally loaded.

All the pics are just outstanding. The fifth pic is just perfect for my lappy wallpaper. I am short of words...what to say.

One thing I can definitely say that your photography skills are just professional.

I am following your pics since you posted the pics of beautiful orange sunset.

Just excellent. I appreciate your work @acidyo

Finland is such a beautiful country @acidyo - I have come a cross several steemians from Finland in the last few days posting pictures around the countryside. It always looks so tranquil and peaceful. Aside from the shiny retro dolphin slide, that's a bit out there LOL

They are joining day by day! :)

One day I will visit, my family heritage if from Norway, Sweden, and bit further back Finland. All on my dad's side. He traveled with his brother 3 years ago to trace our ancestry there, it's quite interesting.

Gorgeous photo's and a gorgeous park, man. That slide looks fucking crazy though, lol. Hope you went down it once or twice, haha.

Also, have you tried melatonin to help with your sleep issues? Might be worth a shot to see, bro.

Haven't tried it lately actually, should go after some to the pharmacy.

I myself haven't tried it, but I have heard good things from like 3-4 of my friends who had problems with insomnia or restlessness, and it worked well for them. The only other thing I know of that can help with getting to sleep is Benadryl, because that's what I've been taking, lol. Hopefully it helps you out, man!

If it makes you feel any better, I've been having a hard time sleeping lately too. My birthday is tomorrow, and I'm sure I will spend most of it trying to take a nap, haha.

Oh, I should also say though if you use Benadryl to try and help, don't use it every night. It really dries out your sinus cavities and can cause nosebleeds if you take large doses every night for extended periods of time, at least in my case. I would really try the melatonin out first and see how that works.

Those are some really cool pictures. Too bad there was no whale slide. I'd like to go on that one.

Haha maybe that can be Steem Park #2! :D

That's a sick minnow slide

Beautiful photos. :)
I would guess what is that slide if you did not mentioned that in the post. :P

Being in places like that is what refill your energy!
Happy-01

Hey @acidyo! You can be lucky that there was a brigde, otherwise you might would of been one of those:


A Finnish hiker comes to the river crossing up north and wants to get across, sees another hiker on the other side and yells over.... HOW DO I GET TO THE OTHER SIDE....
The other hiker looks up river, then down river and yells:
YOU ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE!

lol

Great post!

I was not expecting the middle of that picture to be a slide that was shaped like that lol. That area looks so nice and I'm glad you were able to enjoy it! Thanks for sharing :)

Great photograph and informative post, but i dont understand yet about "Cryptocurrency Investment" mean. Thanks @acidyo

Hey, acid. Did you mention before that there's a discord channel available for steemit? Or, am I misremembering? I wish steemit had a message system so I didn't have to leave weird comments like this, lol.

I really like walking through Łazienki (the Parks name which literally means bathrooms) in my city. Its probably the only place where you can take a really deep breath. I'm really jelous of all the people who lives in the uptown or even further from all that noise and rush. Soon I'll have a retail work and move out from the city :)

what a huge minnow slide haha liked it ! Thanks @acidyo for your hard work and hope you could check my latest post and give me your opinion about it ! innovation principles if you have time of course !

That looks like a nice walk!
Enjoy your day and greetz from Detlev

Beautiful pictures .You are so talented people who have been reached at this point in this world. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful post. Please don't hesitate to give a look on my post too, if you don't mind. Your presence turns into a lively state of my post.

You are very amazing, I really like your post what else your photo is very unusual for me, whether I can know what shoot using camera what? I want to learn photography with you my brother? Would you like to teach me @acidyo

I was waiting for pic of the inside of the slide...I know there's no way you could resist going down it!

Upvoted & RESTEEMED :]

I found it a very beautiful place. Do many people go?

Outdoor walks are the best when you're stressed. Lovely ducks!

upvoted you.

You saw a huge minnow, but you are a whale, so you shouldn't worry :))
Enjoying the nature. Btw, great pictures.

That's s really nice park, looks pretty big, with long trails for walking or jogging and places to rest. Lots of luscious greenery and beautiful, blue skies. Very welcoming!

wow i can live there forever @acidyo, looks like a majestic place hehe <3 <3 <3 beautifully captured ^_^

@acidyo nice update, beautiful pictures. Do you think it's advisable to sell now and buy back when it goes down further? I think I've made a wrong choice cos it's seems like its coming up fast. I hope it goes down further before coming up again. What do you think?

Awesome

What a beautiful place!!!
Thank you for sharing the super cool pictures...

It's a very nice photo master @acidyo
Your picture is very bright

Fantastic views! I can imagine what a pleasure it was to wander there:)

At first, i thought this dolphin has horns.
I don't want to meet this thing walking at night!

Nice and refreshing 4tos. I also shared some 4tos I took yesterday. No one noticed. I wish I had a dolphin slide. Lol. :D

Very creative looking slide! Designers in Finland seem very good at taking the unusual and making it usable for all people.
