Like any other big city Barcelona has a scene for Street Art. I went with the local street art tour for a walk through the “El Raval” neighborhood, starting at the Museum of Modern Art Barcelona and ending the tour at the “Jardin de tres Xemeneies”. A nice 2 hours walk accompanied by a guide […]
From the 1930’ies the government in Denmark wanted to encourage people to lead a healthy life, this included being physical active and getting into the nature. So they commissioned a beach park to be constructed north of Copenhagen. The Danish architect Arne Jacobsen was handed the task to create the beach park Bellevue. Afterwards the […]
When visiting big cities you from time to time might need a break from all the noise and crowds. Parks are often such a place you’ll need, here I have found a suggestion for a little quiet moment that also provides entertainment if you like sculptures and plants. The botanical garden in BA provides a […]
Have you ever wondered what will happen in you life in the next 4 seconds? I have often evaluated what will happen – or more often what would I like to happen – to me within the next 1/2 year or so. But honestly the next few seconds, between rarely and never had I thought […]
You have probably heard about Elsinore, but not as a town with an interesting old town with funny small details to enjoy. Most know the city from Shakespeare’s Hamlet, but the other is absolutely worth to spend time on – if you happen to visit the city and want to see something other than the […]
Copenhagen have been expanding with new areas over the last 20-30 years. Such an area is of course the harbor that was being needed less and less after gods moved from smaller ships to large container ships. So old warehouses and industrial building have been removed and replaced with accommodation for new citizens. I took […]
For my own part I seek to meet strangers with an open mind and being welcoming. I like to think of the next of kin as kind person who might be interesting and inspiring to me, maybe even capable of enriching my experience of life. I do not want to meet anybody with aggression or […]
I actually went to the local museum Sophienholm to have a look at exhibition of art works with light, exhibited in the park. But didn’t fancy the works that much so I enjoyed the sunset most.
From time to time I chose to convert images from the usual color to B&W, think it brings out other aspects of the image. If I’m experiencing a dull light – e.g. full grey overcast – conversion to B&W can improve the image. Here is a couple of examples that was not taken under a […]
The weather forecast for Christmas day was bright blue sky with sun, so my wife and I decided for an early morning tour through Copenhagen. We started out more than half an hour before sunrise (it’s not as early as it sounds) to take pictures of the newly installed artwork on the pier next to […]
I’m not a fan of winter in the Nordic countries, temperatures will be dropping from comfortable to freezing and light seems to disappear. Currently sun will rise around 8:30 and go down again around 15:30, it should provide 7 hours of daylight. But the last 3-4 weeks the weather has not been helping the access […]
How often do you actually see glass? Most of the time I don’t see the glass, I see whats on the other side, because modern glass – be it windows, camera lenses, spectacles – is clear an almost invisible. For specs and lenses they are even coated to avoid unwanted reflections in order to create […]

For nogle år siden skrev jeg om familiens julesange. Det kan godt være vi ikke synger dem særlig kønt, men vi synger dem i hvertfald højt og hurtigt. Det sker faktisk også at enkelte deltagere søges udstyret med den årlige tilladelse til at synge, for det er helt klart ikke os alle der er udstyret […]
Fruen og jeg drog ud i det nordsjællandske for at opleve lidt af kulturen der. Vi startede med at køre til Frederiksværk for at besøge Gjethuset, hvor Yuko Takada Keller, der bor i Helsinge, udstiller sine 3 dimmensionelle værker. Det specielle er at hovedmaterialet er kalkerpapir, det giver nogle skulpturer som er lette og oftest […]
Det er ingen hemmelighed at husstander hylder den demokratiske forfatning eller at vi faktisk ikke synes den er demokratisk nok eller at der er folkevalgte som har en for snæver opfattelse af demokrati. Det sker også at vi ligefrem aktivt støtter op om den demokratiske proces eller benytter vores ytringsfrihed. Tirsdag den 5. juni 2012 […]
Det er jul og juleaften skal hele familien skråle sig vej rundt om det stakkels træ. Vi synger både nogle traditionelle julesange og tager nogle ekstra med for sjov skyld. Ingen af dem er nogensinde blevet sunget som forfatterne havde forestillet sig det. Efter at have sloges med, at huske hvilke variationer vi har tilføjet […]
