My Scrapbook flickr account. Huh. I'll post pictures there that I wouldn't normally post in this account. Like to keep this one neat and tidy.
I like carrots and mozzarella. Among other things.
I'll try to learn how to take photos. Just while ago (that was Christmas 2006, but I still say a while ago) I took the first step. Hmm. But I went to the wrong direction, so I had to turn around and now I'm at the start again. Hmm. I could go left or right, damn it. I'll just stay here for a while, maybe I'll meet someone here. Oh hello there.
I wear my watch on the wrong hand. It's 4-7 minutes ahead so I won't be late.
If I eat too many strawberries I'll get a fever. How sad is that.
Oh and I don't like borders, on pictures.
I was born in 1983 and since that I've been mostly thinking.
Thank you for all the comments and favourites, I do appreciate them. I just don't feel comfortable on posting comments on my own pictures so unless there's a question mark (?), you probably won't be find any comments there from me. Oh and I'm not too keen having big blinking images on the comments, if they dissappear don't be offended, I just don't like them, to be honest I've had enough of them really. Now that wasn't a proper sentence at all was it.
I try aim quality not quantity (at the moment there's no quality nor quantity) all the time so there aren't many photos and some of the older ones might be dropping away from the stream.
Tried to make a private set on March 2009, the end result was that I lost couple hundred favourites on about 20 pictures. So if you are wondering why my pictures disappeared from your favourites... It wasn't my fault, well it was but I didn't mean to. Sorry
If you got this far... Thank you for proof reading first chapter of my novel.

"Porro is someone I've not known long, but I know enough about Porro to say that he is a bit of a magician and a mystery maker.
He takes a simple idea that a less creative mind would miss and he turns it into an adventure of a photo . . . he's a natural born travel photographer. He's a mystery-maker too, because he makes me want to know more and more about the things he photographs and loves. I feel like I'm opening a magazine when I visit his stream.
He's a fresh breeze. His humor is endearing and tongue-in-cheek; dry humor. His mind is as creative as it is artistic. My testimonial will change in time, I think, about Porro . . . because Porro is reaching, stretching, humming, singing and warming up for bigger things while finding his artistic voice. He already has one, but he's clearing his throat and trying out many things. I believe Porro is going to be around creating wonderful images on this planet for a VERY long time.
Also, I believe Porro is going to gather a wonderful following of admirers who are captivated by his love for living through his art.
Visiting Porro's photostream is one of my favorite "creative hikes" to take; I hope you take the time to see Finland (and his world) through Porro's very observant, talented eyes, too. It's my opinion that you won't be disappointed!
