š It was a peaceful and sunny day, and I was so lucky I had the whole day to enjoy it. I went to the sea and didn’t believe my eyes! The magic of the winter breath was there: the birth of the ice plates!
At first, they were just small specks in the water, but soon they grew and spread, drifting closer to the beach where I stood. Each of them was different, shining crystals sparkling at their edges, moving and turning in the slow waves, like sleeping dreams of the Winter Sea. āļø
ā£ļø Helpful Hint – the video looks much better in 4K!
- On a PC, choose the “settings” icon (āļø) at the lower right corner of the movie. Click and select the quality you want. On the phone, the “settings” icon is likely to be at the top right corner instead.
- If you do not see any icon, you may have to move the mouse/touch the screen for it to appear.
- If the movie “stutters” or halts, you may have to choose a lower quality.
- Sometimes – especially when using the app – Youtube may ignore your choice of quality because it thinks that “it knows best”. But if you persist, it will usually listen to you after a while. š
š Wishing you a beautiful and relaxing time, dear friends!

You created a beautiful piece of work for our mind and heart. Looking at the pieces of winter as it floats on the winter water is meditating. I was actually in Scandinavia in September visiting my sister who is a pianist living in Finland. I have not been back to Denmark in decades and would love to visit I hope soon. Keep up the good work.

Dear Mao, what a delightful surprise! Thank you so much, my friend! š I greatly value your opinion and support. š If you should happen to visit Denmark, please let me know – it would be great to meet you and be able to show you some of the beautiful and fascinating sights around Copenhagen. š
Is your sister in Finland on CD, or on YouTube maybe? I have never been to Finland myself, but I hear it is a beautiful country! š

Dear Roth, thank you so much for your wonderful words! Even though Global Warming tries to give us a little more heat, up here in the northern part of the world, it will be a long while yet before I’ll dare to go bathing in the sea! š Though the laughing, bathing women you hear in the middle of the video quite disagreed with that sentiment. š
All the best and take care, my friend š
