Are you a prince?

Strawberry Fields Forever

It doesn't get more summerish than this.. Strawberry picking in South of Denmark. Needless to say I didn't fill a single container and got a heavy stomach ache in return. Karma I guess.. 

Now I know why they tell you to whistle why you pick 'em strawberries.. 

Shine up

I happen to live in the only street in Denmark where the street names are painted directly on the houses. It has been that way since 1631 and the tradition lives on. 

Color my world

Party animals on trains station in Sydney. 

Have you ever looked at an old photo of yourself and thought: "What the f... was I thinking" when you saw what you were wearing? Well.. To me photo editing is just like that. That's why I always save the original so that I can re-edit it whenever I want. This photo was taken half a year ago. 

Rebel

Today at work I looked out the window and two running guys caught my attention. They were running very fast in the middle of the road between the cars straight towards a hot dog stand on wheels with a lady pulling it. They jumped from the street up on the roof of the rolling hot dog stand. The lady didn't notice them - but so did many others. They both did a small dance of victory while greeting the crowd watching them. Then 1-2-3 they jumped from the hot dog stand to a downspout, disappeared behind a building and left their audience smiling and clapping.. Parkours. I love people that dare do things like that. 

These pictures are from an abandoned power plant in Fremantle, Western Australia. 

My biggest fear?

Escalators.. Devilish things - especially the ones that go down down. I'd rather take a leap from a cliff than stepping out on these rolling bastards. 

Btw - this photo is obviously not taken by me but my lovely friend, Ditte. I'm the fear fighter.. 

Trust me

Piles of roses

Cupcakes

They can't possibly taste as good as they look.. 

Sanctuary

Where do you go on a rainy day to shoot some photos? The cemetery off course..

Flowers on a rainy day in Vestre Graveyard - the biggest cemetery in Denmark. Next week I'm getting a macro lens - imagine how good it will make these photos look. I can't wait. 

Nyboder

This is my home.. Nyboder (= new small houses) is a historic row house district of former Naval barracks in the center of Copenhagen, Denmark. It was planned and first built by King Christian the IV for the Royal Danish Navy and their families. The building project was started in 1631 and finished in 1795. These houses are heritage listed and still reserved for the military today. 

Originally four families would share one house and rent out the lumber room in the addict to a student. The families were poor and not welcome in other parts of Copenhagen - when the man was on the sea prostitution was a way for he women to make money. 

Today we have our own kitchen and each apartment is approximately 60 square meters. The majority of the residents are employed in the Danish navy.

Aquarium

I have 250 litres of photo opportunity in my living room. South American Discus fish.

My muse

Without further ado.. Carla Marie. My princess!
