The sun is shining this last day in 2013, here between Gadstrup and Ramsømagle.

A Boat After Storm?

noreply@blogger.com (Jørgen Carlsen) — Thu, 26 Dec 2013 19:58:00 +0000

In the first week of december, we had a storm called Bodil in Denmark. The water in Roskilde Fjord was 2,06 meter higher than normal.

Is the boat at the grass an effect of that storm? I don’t know, but why should it be there if not. The little photo is from nearly the same position long before the water peaked december 6th.

Storm and Storm Surge December 6th and 7th 2013

noreply@blogger.com (Jørgen Carlsen) — Sun, 08 Dec 2013 12:58:00 +0000

A long lasting storm has passed Denmark and the surrounding countries a few days ago. A lot of damage, including damage caused by storm surge at many places, are seen. Many high-water records are noticed. Roskilde Fjord peaked 2,06 meter over normal. My photos was taken at 10 AM friday, but later it was a lot worse.

The Viking Ship Museum to the left was under pressure from the water and precautions was taken. At the museum homepage there are several photos and a short video, see Viking Ship Museum. Later the museum was surrounded by water.

Snoldelev Church

noreply@blogger.com (Jørgen Carlsen) — Fri, 23 Aug 2013 14:50:00 +0000

Sometimes we take a walk called “Around Snoldelev” Thats a walk of a little more than an hour and 7700 steps. To day – for the first time – my wife and I went into the churchyard. It was a good experience, nice and quiet, sitting on a bench for a short time, we enjoyed the sun and the place.

Snoldelev church is from around 1100.

July has been fantastic. Dry, hot and lots of sunshine.

Now we have a more usual danish summer – sun, rain, wind.

Rain and sun in the garden.

There was not much rain in that cloud.

Hedeland A Day In February

noreply@blogger.com (Jørgen Carlsen) — Mon, 11 Feb 2013 06:54:00 +0000

If raw materials are removed from the landscape wounds are the result. If that landscape are rebuild, you have an recreational construction. Near Roskilde – and partly owned by Roskilde municipality – are Hedeland, a very large area of changed nature, giving room for many activities. A few days ago we were 5 persons walking in a little part of it for 2 hours – enjoying the winter. Here is the amphitheatre to the left. It is used for opera some evenings during the summer. You kan get an impression of Hedeland here, by scrolling one page down. Notice the meters lowest at the page, giving an impression of the largeness of the area..

The Comfortable Køge-chair by Allan Olsen

noreply@blogger.com (Jørgen Carlsen) — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 08:30:00 +0000

The comfortable Køge-chair is made by Allan Olsen. The chair is placed near Køge River and I like to take a look at this piece of art whenever I pass. A few days ago the wintersun did shine at the chair. Here you see the face and below the whole chair. What do you think?

It Is Cold To Be A Bird

noreply@blogger.com (Jørgen Carlsen) — Sun, 20 Jan 2013 15:50:00 +0000

This birch is just before the railroad in Gadstrup. The black birds are enjoying the sun on this cold winterday.

The company is called Danish Agro. They have just made a new advertising-paper, Ny avis på gaden … (New paper at the street), which means everyone has got it in the mailbox.

I do certainly not understand the tendency in Denmark to think danes only understand english headlines – so thank you for a headline in danish.
