This photo won annual nature photography competition held in Finland in 2008.

Excerpt from the Vuoden luontokuva competition website gives details how this photo was created:

On the first Saturday in February, darkness had already descended on the Helsinki suburbs and street lights illuminated the courtyard between the apartment buildings. It was raining and the asphalt was wet. Mikkonen sent his wife out for a walk and moved to the filming stations on the sixth floor balcony. The cars were in suitable places by nature, but for his shooting model he gave directions on his cell phone.
