Wednesday June 26

Final Day in Helsinki. Visited the National museum where there was a fascinating exhibition by Nick Brandt, an English photographer who decided to place full size prints of African large mammals in the places that they once lived but are now taken over by human development. The exhibition was called Inherit the Dust. The photo of the Elephant is sub-titled "Your Life is on Track" - the wording of the ad in the top left of the photo. Clearly not true for the glue sniffers in the foreground!
