Happy 95th Finnish Independence day to all my fellow Finns! to the rest of you this might not seem very Christmas-y post (as i promised you'd get everyday this month), but to me this day is strongly associated with the holidays. and winter, and snow! which we have plenty this year. so i thought i'd share some pretty pictures from my homeland via Visit Finland's flickr. and to the rest of you, happy thursday! tomorrow i will teach you how to make animated snow.
