(Must be a photo that's been tweaked through some photoshop filter to make it look like a watercolour. Minus the logo, I'd have that on my wall anytime. It's from the Kallio church tower I presume?)

Grrr... I wish it would work for me but my safari says that its not connected.... weird.... ----Safari can’t open the page “http://kallionkulttuuriverkosto.fi/KIP/ ... ipinoi.pdf” because Safari can’t connect to the server “kallionkulttuuriverkosto.fi”.----
