Risto is the founder and administrator of Leikkipuisto photoblog.
"I'm 27 years old guy from Tampere, Finland. Since 2004 I've found photography more and more interesting
way to capture happenings and sights of my vicinity. Final step for serious start of photographing was the purchase of my first DSLR camera (Nikon D70) on 2007.
My photographical interests are stunning landscapes, photojournalism and vintage Lomo/Holga shots.

Tuomo has photographed for Leikkipuisto from spring 2008.
"My home is in Hämeenlinna, Finland. I can say I started photographing during 2005 with a basic digital pocket camera focusing on nature and
landscape photos. Nowadays I attempt to take more miscellaneous and interesting snapshots from the surrounding life.
Especially I like to explore abandoned and ruined places which are very essential source of my photography inspiration.
Since 2006 I've used DSLR camera (Canon EOS 300D) and some time ago I bought an old Russian Zenit ET (plus an huge 400mm telezoom objective).
More information about me is stored on
Facebook."
Gear: Canon EOS 300D, HP Photosmart 735, Zenit ET
