HDR in Helsinki: Olympic Stadium Tower

by Akseli Niemelä on May 19, 2012

Olympic Stadium Tower is one of the landmarks of Helsinki. Now I captured it at Töölönlahti bay photo session. The tower can be seen behind the bay when looking from downtown. With the Opera house it gives a beautiful skyline. Especially at sunset. That day ragged clouds joined the sunset giving it an amazing look. Like the sky’s on fire.

The tower, however, is just a… tower. The main attraction there is the Olympic Stadium. It can’t be seen here because of the trees and hills. Anyway the Stadium hosted the 1952 Summer Olympics. Oh, and the Finn’s favourite drink Lonkero was made for those Olympics. Nowadays everybody drinks it. Wouldn’t it be nostalgic to have a pint of Lonkero at the top of the tower?
