“Nature is everything. The soil, the flora, the fauna, the atmosphere are oneness, everything seems to have its place, including human beings. My dream is to learn to understand and to photograph it. Maybe the ideal photographer is unnoticed, not influencing anything but only observing.”

~ Pentti Sammallahti

“Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience”

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson 
(1803-1882)

To say that Pentti is in tune with nature is to state the obvious. But what he also possesses is the patience to wait till it reveals itself at its most beautiful.
