Swimming? Anyone?

Time for a nice photograph. This week we've had Joona Keskitalo on site, which means some good photography is beound to ensue. Joona posted this photograph on Twitter a couple of days ago, but it is so good, we're featuring it today. The shot is taken from the jetty at the shoreline near the Biological Station operated by the University of Helsinki. This is where we stay when working at the KAIRA site. This time last year, the ice had started to break (and yes, we were swimming), but its a bit colder this year... didn't stop some of us from swimming though! (Click on the image to enlarge it.)
