I love letterpress – and have a small collection of old wooden letters.

I grew a bit tired of photographing snow, so decided to find something else in white. They’re all from my parents home: the bowl and glass belonged to my grandmonther.

Winter at Assistens Cemetery

A very snowy saturday afternoon I took a walk at the Assistens Cemetery. It was established in 1760 outside of the walls of Copenhagen, which then grew around the Cemetary, and became Nørrebro, a district of Copenhagen. Nørrebro is a multi-ethnic part of the city with a lot of shops and restaurants, people and noise everywhere – when one enters the quiet grounds of the cemetery all sounds of the city disappears, and you can find a place to breathe – – – – – in the middle of a busy city.

Poets, Musicians and Writers

The cemetery is still in use, but most of the people burried here are famous poets, writers, musicians and business people: H.C. Andersen (writer), Niels Bohr (scientist and Nobel Prize winner) and Søren Kierkegaard lies next to American jazz musicians Kenny Drew and Ben Webster.

My Orange Favourites

This week I bought one of these bad guys – a photo tent. I made my own little setup in the livingroom with the help of some desk lamps, and took the photos below. They were edited a bit – mostly the background and exposure, which I guess is because my lamps aren’t powerful enough. The next gadget on my photogear-wish list is some good lamps.

The theme this week is orange, as you may have guessed. The orange wooden cat is an heirloom from my grandparents. She once had a tail, a string – and a full face – but many years of kids with greasy hands have given her a bit of patina, you might say. Now she resides in my windowsill.

I almost 200 pictures this week, and this is what I got to show. But I did promise myself not to judge the photos I take – just to keep taking some, and hoping that practice will someday make, well, perhaps not perfect, but better then.
