Beautiful tall, slender, white birch trees were everywhere – 14 viewsI took a mediocre (slightly out of focus) picture and rendered it as a watercolor painting. The scenery really was beautiful. This photo was taken during our coach trip to the island of Saaremaa.

Plaque commemorating of the founding of Tartu, Estonia, in 1030 – 10 viewsIn 1030, Yaroslav the Wise, Prince of Kiev, raided Tartu and built his fort there. In 1224 Tartu was conquered by German crusaders and came under the control of the Sword Brethren (Livonian Order). Subsequently known as Dorpat, Tartu became a commercial centre of considerable importance during the later Middle Ages. It was a member of the Hanseatic League and the capital of the semi-independent Bishopric of Dorpat. (source: Wikipedia)
