WordPress – Grid, make it the most important in your photo. Well, grids are not always manmade – you find nature’s grids everywhere…My choice fell on a Vanda, a remarkable Asian orchid, intensely coloured with a splendid grid. This Vanda I found standing in Denmark, outside a hotel.

Copenhagen – Art, Down Under and Above

A trip to Copenhagen is never wrong – this time again with Viveka at myguiltypleasures. She has already written an interesting post on this, but I cannot resist doing one as well. I will do it My way – so, hopefully you will get a full report reading both!

This time Cisternerne, the Cisterns, the old water system, was to be visited.

Ingvar Cronhammar and Martin Hall are the artists behind this.

In the open air again – much warmer and less damp. First, a short rest, and then…

…we walked the majestic avenues of trees, where we met old and young,

…and many sweet dogs!

Impressive trees in even rows as well as standing alone

The Norwegian Cottage harmonized well with its surroundings

Suddenly a beautiful young couple floated by, with a photographer trailing behind. Making their day an eternal memory.

All this, of course, made us ready for some tasty food. In the company of a chef I trust, I chose a classic Danish ”Frokost”. And at the railwaystation we finished the day off with a ”Kartoffelkage”.

Today was a good day.
