Honey, can you come get me? I think I may have a little problem... Giving a little twist to rickysphotochallenge team of this week (that is if bricks and concrete are allowed too.) This post participates

Belle époque Picknick is a happening organized by the zoo of Antwerp to celebrate 170 years of existence. It shows more or less how the zoo looked like back then, when it was more like a park where families

By far the hottest day in Bornholm was when I went to Ekkodalen. The other days there was a lot of wind (as you would expect on an island) to cool things down a bit, but that day there was no wind and

From Jonskapel, it is a short but rewarding ride through lush forests and farming fields to Hammershus. Hammershus is Scandinavia's largest medieval fortification, situated on a rock towering 74 metres

Still going trough my images as I write this, but I take the opportunity to share already some of them here. Yesterday evening was 'nacht van de duisternis' (translates as night of the darkness or night

Forgive me, but i don't know the name of this little insect. I hope you like it anyway. Pentax *ist D + DA 35 macro Limited Unless otherwise noted, all photo's are made by myself! If you liked this post

By far the most interesting day on Bornholm was when I took North heading Sandvih, the northernmost part of the Island. The sun which already was present for the whole week did in extra effort: it was

To be perfectly honest, I was a little disappointed in visiting Christiansø. It is not that the island is very big and the island of Græsholm was a little too far away to make photo's of the abundant bird

You would think that some rocks in the Baltic sea wouldn't have any importance, right? Well, think of it, even here men built a fortress! As the most Northern point of Denmark and since the Swedish combat

I started a post about how I successfully repaired a Pentax K 28mm shift lens Now, probably you want to know how the results are. Well, actually surprisingly good. Of course 28mm on an APS-c camera is

As I told in my introduction post, I love to read books. I just finished reading Tom Rob Smith's latest novel "The Farm" and felt I should share it here. I only read it now, because I try to

Ertholmene, commonly known as Christiansø, is a small archipelago situated approximately 19 km (12 mi) northeast of Gudhjem and only accessible by boat. It consist of three little islands, the smallest

The long exposure helped to make this bridge appear empty (even at midnight there was surprisingly much people passing.) The real challenge was to time the exposure such that I would not have people walking

Now, I hear you asking: "where did you leave your bike since bikes are not allowed on the isle of Christiansø?" (or maybe you didn't ask because i hadn't told, but now you know.) Well, I had

An old fishing village, Gudhjem is the starting point to Christiansø, the place where I was going to, but it has enough interest to warrant a visit on itself. Gudhjem means place (hjem or heim) of the

Disclaimer: if you want to do the same, you are all on your own! This is not for the faint of heart, nor for the ones not called mister handy in their family. If any goes south don't go blaming me, this

Last of the Østerlars Kirke is the attic. Here is where people eventually sheltered against attacks. At barely 10 meter (3 feet) across it's hard to imagine a whole community staying here. More so if you

If you thought we were finished in the church, you were mistaken. You can go up using these stairs. Noticed something? Yes, they are uneven and the staircase is very small. As a matter of fact they are

You could see it already in yesterday's photo, but here I am going close-up on the baptistery. As you have guessed this was used to baptize people which is one of the biggest rites of Christianity. For
