'Raahe Wanha Herra' or 'The old gentleman of Raahe' is believed to be the oldest surviving diving suit in existence, dating back to the 1700s, from Finland. It was made from stitched calfskin. The diving suit was made waterproof by sealing it with a mixture of pork fat, tar and pitch. The hood-shaped head is reinforced from the inside with a wooden framework. In the upper part of the hood is an opening for a wooden air pipe.

Finnish photographer Jani Ylinampa did a series of four photos of Kotisaari, showing the island from a drone’s point of view for each of the four seasons (from left to right): spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

Small, teardrop shaped island with five buildings of various sizes (possibly a house with barns and outbuildings) on the lower right side. The point of the drop has a little round pond, then a very small, nearly enclosed inlet. There are trees on the left, below the closed side of the inlet and a series of shrubs around the edges of the island. Spring is browned grass and leafless trees and shrubs. There is still a bit of ice on the surface of the pond and inlet.
Same as island but in summer. Looks like it is floating in the sky (which is a near mirror reflection of deep blue puffy clouds). The vegetation is all a bright and vibrant green. There are three, nearly hidden canoes laying keel up in the lower right. Slightly above that is a brand new L-shaped floating dock with a green fishing net spread across it, drying in the sun.
Fall is browning grass and the trees and shrubs are about halfway shifted to a crisp gold. There are three canoes in a row, keels up in the lower left, just below a newish looking L-shaped floating dock.
The island in winter. The surrounding water and the pond / inlet are iced over. There is a light coat of snow on everything. There are long shadows slanting down on the left across the ice from the sun shining through the leafless trees and shrubs.

Nice when the Northern Lights pop up in your own yard. Easy to nip back in for a slug of hot tea between photographic efforts in the chilly outdoors.
