Dirty snow

This used to be white snow. Seems that the winter is about to be over.

A night of culture

Last night was Kulturnat (Culture Night) in Copenhagen. Heaps of places were open for the public all night. Great atmosphere! This is National Gallery of Denmark.

Final piece of wood

OK - this is the last piece of wood I will give you for now.

I will be away for a couple of days again. But hang on - I will be back with more Copenhagen photos.

Yet another piece of wood


We will just take another shot from the Copenhagen International Wood Festival. This sculpture has a more organised impression than the one from yesterday. I like them both.

Wood festival #2

People have asked for a view of the finished work at the Copenhagen International Wood Festival. This is one of the sculptures. Quite impressing I think. It's a tree.

Wood festival

What would you do if you had 1 km of wood? That is what Copenhagen International Wood Festival is trying to figure out. Teams are having 5 days to build a sculpture out of thin pieces of wood.

World Trade Center

Someone has left a model of New York's World Trade Center on a piece of grass at the corner of Sølvgade and Farimagsgade. I have no idea what that is about, but I thought is was worth a photo.

Various signs

Sometimes you see signs that you can't really decipher. Not because the sign is necessarily confusing, but because the graffitti painters have been there...

Performing the democratic duty


People lining up to perform their democratic duty at today's EU election. I really like elections. There is a special sense of personal influence in the room, with all the people waiting to cast their vote.

1 hour before the polling stations close, it looks like a record participation around 50 %. That is actually quite high for an EU election in Denmark. But still, 50 % isn't really that much and even a bit disapointing I think. At the elections for the national Danish parlament the participation is usually between 85 % and 90 %. That is democracy at it its best!

Small cars


Cars in Copenhagen are generally small :)

Our city


'Vores by' (Our City) it says on the sticker. And it certainly is our city - and everybody elses who wants to drop by.
