Trientalis europaea

I was a child when I first met this beauty. Grandma took me with her to the near forest. -Plan was to pick some blueberries, but quite soon we found out that I didn’t like the idea of picking berries. Instead of that I observed things, like I still do.

Here in Finland we have named this small flower as a forest star, and I think it suits her well. Wonder what is her english name?

This individual was captured during our company’s spring trip last year. I was lying on the ground shooting flowers, and my colleagues were shooting me. (Don’t want to guess where those pics ended up…) However, that situation was a good example of the fact that we see things differently.
