During easter, I had the opportunity to stay a couple of days in Teignmouth with my familiy. Not knowing anything about the place in advance, we chose it since it was conviniently situated for exploring a bit of southern England. It turned out to be very nice. Very British – but in a charming and relaxed way. Highly recommended. Riviera Apartments is the place to stay.
Here are a few photos – more can be found on Flickr or in the album
I guess everyone who comes to Paris already have their head filled with images of the city. At least anyone with an interest in photography, that is.
And when you get home and browse your photos, you come to think: are these really images of Paris? Or are they images of my own images of Paris?
Anyway, that’s the conditions of tourism: you travel both in order to experience something new and to be confirmed in what you already think you know. And of course Paris is lovely – n’est-ce pas?
Lovers, Rue de FĂĽrstenberg, Paris

This picture is taken a couple of days ago. It was a cold day with snow on the ground – but also with a sun shining from a clear sky. I was wandering about in Northwest, a part of Copenhagen that has a reputation for being a bit worn down.
The picture of Arne’s tyre-shop is slightly cropped, but the colours are as I saw them.Â
However, I find the colour version a bit too messy, so I tried a monochrome version.
But frankly, the monochrome version is a bit dull. So, this is the final version: among other effects it has been desaturated, but still with a bit of red, and contrast has been cranked up quite a bit.
I’m still having a discussion with myself about this version: is it the best – or is it overdone? Visually, I’m in no doubt that this is the most interesting version. But it also has become quite gloomy – a far bit away from the original scenery on that sunny day, as I remember it.
Some new photos, this time from a trip to Amsterdam. Click the thumbnail for a panoramic view from the roof terrace of NEMO – and see the rest of the pictures in the photoalbum.
