In the Gulf of Finland, coming in front of Hanko. Went to watch the deck at sunset, perhaps in the hope of a green glimpse. This did not come, but as the Sun sank below the horizon, a bright reddish spot appeared on it. I interpreted this as a pollen ring. 1xcircle Colors: KP Brightness: 3 birth: #mänty

In the evening, a slightly diffuse pollen circle of pine was visible. Certainly at least a double circle, possibly a triple. 3x perimeter (?) colors: VaKOP-VKP-VP (?) brightness: 5-2-1? birth: #mänty

I noticed a very weak circle around the sun - apparently caused by some pollen. It actually showed better to the naked eye than what I got to see in its pictures.

Pollen rings were still clear, although not at the previous day's level. When I left work, I saw a triple circle and then at home in the evening a quadruple, with the fourth zone on the right side. The perimeters were slightly more diffuse than in previous days. at 5:25 p.m. 3x perimeter brightness: 5-3-2 colors: VaKP-VKP-VP at 7 p.m. 4x perimeter brightness: 5-4-2-1 colors: VaKP-SVKP-VKP-VP birth: #mänty

Pollen improved towards the evening. This is probably the very play of the performance season. As late as 19.35 in the countries in the East Center, a normal upper cloud reduced the visibility of the perimeter, but as the Sun sets, the quadruple perimeter is staggering and there was no doubt about a fourth swarm. At five times, however, I did not notice the perimeter. at 7.35 pm 3x perimeter brightness: 5-42- colors: VaP-VKP-VP clouds as a disadvantage at 20.11 4x perimeter brightness: 5-4-2-1 colors: VaP-VKOP-VKP-VP at 21.50 4x perimeter brightness: 5-4-3-1 colors: VaKP-VKOP-VKP-VP birth: #mä...

While waiting for the bus in Viikki, I spotted a pine triple again. 3x perimeter brightness: 5-3-1 Colors: VaKOP-SVKP-V birth: #mänty

We were walking towards Kamppi metro station, when I noticed a pine pollen circle around the Sun behind the ridge of the house, These could be expected, because the sp season was at its hardest. Clearly triple perimeter with upper brightening. 3x perimeter brightness: 5-4-2 colors: VaKP-SVKP-VKP birth: #mänty

I was away in the evening at Star Rock and went a bit to photograph the colorful afterglow at the edge of the harvest hole. For a while, a red spot appeared on the horizon, which disappeared as the Sun sank lower. I hastily interpreted that as a pillar of the sun for a long time, but on closer inspection, and in calculating the height of the Sun, it is probably a matter of the upper brightening of the double zone of the pollen circle of the pine. The sun was pretty close to the horizon. Even a cloud doesn’t look particularly like a top cloud. 2xcircle brightness: 3 colors: P birth: #mänty

The pollen circles of the pine came out with a rumble as the air warmed up a bit. I was already watching the triple circle when I left work, which then brightened as the evening progressed. At least a triple circle, dimly maybe even quadrupled. Even the fairy-tale camera reproduces the perimeters clearly, although that dim outermost remains unclear. 5:45 p.m. 3x perimeter brightness: 5-4-1 colors: VaKP-SVKOP-SVKP 6:00 p.m. 3xring / 4xring? brightness: 5-4-2-0? colors: VaKP-ViSVKOP-SVKP At 20.25 3xring / 4xring? brightness: 5-4-2-0.5? colors: VaOP-ViSVKP-SVKP-V? birth: #mänty

The pollen season continues to be quite intense, although heavy rains washed the trees for a couple of days. Last image processed.

Pine pollen circles were still in force in the northern parts of Lapland (which was noticed on the car surfaces after the night) from the beginning of the week before Wednesday's heavy rains. At least three hoops appeared effortlessly and in the BR-treated image (Fig. 4) there would appear to be signs of a fourth and a weakly fifth hoop. Figure 2 highlights shades and colors.

On a beautiful summer evening, one of the latest tree pollen shines I remember. Luckily, the girlfriend’s roof had a great sun visor for shooting help.

Throughout the day the pollen ring was well visible but in the evening it was really beautiful. The first picture at 13.42 and the rest at 22.24.

We are on a slightly different schedule than in the south, we are already there in the night clouds but we still have pine pollen. While grilling, I noticed so many pretty hoops, finally, because the best time for flowering pine was very rainy. The cell phone in one hand and the grill tongs in the other hand obviously didn’t really work out. Later, when I was looking for the camera, I found that I had not remembered to learn with which miracle settings these miracles could be recorded, even though I had planned to sniff out the Vahti's great pictures. The hoops were great and the hazy pict...
