AN OLD DRAWING, "TUNED" BY FREE PICASA PHOTO PROGRAM




An old drawing from the year 1975 shows a view from my student-time home in Viikki, Helsinki.

The original drawing has turned brownish and the contrasts relatively pale. I opened my PICASA program and corrected both of the faults. Framing was also done by PICASA "museomatta" correction.

So - here it is, in its new look.  I hope that you like this early spring view of a forest - in the middle of the city Helsinki!

Old drawing from my student times!


I was very pleased when, during cleaning of my old papers (and there are really lost of them!), I found this old drawing, dated 25.3.1975. I was living in Viikki, Helsinki, Finland on those days, studying microbiology / limnology / chemistry in HU. My student home was situated in a walking distance from university, in the middle of forests and fields. This area is fulfilled with institutes and other houses today - only the fields are mainly left untouched for the use of agricultural trials and training by the university.

I shall fix this old drawing to avoid further degradation of it. It has value for myself because it seems to be the first drawing after my school years. - Maybe frames, too?
