Last Friday there was a little Steemit meet up going on in Estonia. Some people of them wanted to explore Estonia a little further from the capital, Tallinn. Because I'm a local, they asked me if I could show them some cool places that are not very far from the Tallinn. I have never met anyone from Steemit so of course, I didn't want to miss an opportunity. They are all photography lovers and this makes things even more interesting.

So, together with eveuncovered@eveuncovered, @Escapist and rubencress@rubencress, off we drove. We had 4 hours of sunlight and 3 destinations that we had to visit. I was their "tour guide" or at least tried to be and provided them with some interesting information about places.

1-st destination: Keila waterfall


This is one of the waterfalls around Tallinn, surrounded by different bridges, park and hydroelectricity powerplant.
eveuncovered@eveuncovered I still don't believe you that there are no waterfalls in Finland.

To make things more interesting I will add a photo from the same place captured in the winter for comparison.

There are always stupid people around, this day was no errand.
There was a guy who came to me:

Yo, I see you are all photographers, I'm gonna jump down the waterfall, you all take photos of me.

I told him it's probably not a good idea, it's all rocky n stuff down there.

I don't care, I already did it once anyway, just look, I'll be fine.

So we all took photos of him. Sadly my shutter speed remained wrong and he's a little blurred.

He survived the jump.

2-nd destination: Pakri coast cliffside


This is the beautiful high coastline. There have been 2 suicide acts within 2 months. The last one happened 2 days before we went there. Car tracks were clearly visible where it went jumping down. Soon there probably will be a fence to prevent cars from driving down.

Depressing topics aside, this truly is an amazing spot to be and I'm sure we all got some nice photos out of this place.
There is also a fire tower where you can go on but it was already closed due to the time being late.
I will make a separate post of this place when I photographed there 2 months ago and saw the view from top of the tower as well.
Some of the Friday's photos are here.

The third location was abandoned Rummu quarry and this will be a separate post I'm making tomorrow.
