Simo Räsänen (also known here as Ximonic) is one of many users or builders in Wikimedia projects. The user has a Finnish nationality and is a Finnish native speaker. The recommended contact language is English in case one does not speak Finnish.

Considerably, I have the most easy access to the Lapland area of Finland, Sweden and Norway. To me it is very possible to get to the southern parts of these countries too. If you have any place in mind (especially in the mentioned area) that you would like me to take photographs of don't hesitate to suggest it to me. I will look forward and consider to go there. Besides, the visit can get really interesting to me too.

Picture of the day
The Elgin Bridge, a vehicular box girder bridge across the Singapore River, built between 1925 and 1929. The bridge links the Downtown Core to the Singapore River Planning Area located within Singapore’s Central Area. The bridge was named after James Bruce, 8th Earl of Elgin, a colonial administrator and diplomat who had served as Governor-General of Canada and India. This long exposure image shows a boat passing under the bridge during blue hour on August 18, 2023. +/− [en]
