Sunset Rose

There is something about late sunset in my living room and a new rose.... a rose has thorns, but even in the darkness the light always comes through and shows it beauty.... Photo & edit Copyright: Ditte Broens 2012

Ok, so I've just made my first video on youtube, showing some of my many photos from the Danish Star Wars event in Denmark.  The event will happen this weekend 26th & 27th May 2012, so come out and see what it looks like... maybe you'll meet Darth Vader, the jedi's or even Darth Mogul.... who knows.... Be there or be square..... 26th May 2012... sorry had to do some changes on the video, so here it is.... it is mostly at the start and finish...

Woa....

Ok, so I haven't been as busy as people with work would be. But I sure have been busy with editing my photo, in fact so busy that my eyes began to protest shortly after I had gone through like 50 something photos - now awaiting approveal from the people in the photos - that I had to gear down using my laptop. And using a laptop for this kind of photo work is not well not for my eyes, the best option, but I will live with it till it will be better. So for now, I'll just upload this photo that I did today and which describe the time just about it.... Take care out there....

Opening at "Bakken" ("The Hill" or "Valley")

Image
On 29th March this fair called "Bakken" in Danish ("The Hill or Valley if you like) opened and always on the opening day as well closing day in the fall, about 3000-4000 motorcycles in all kind and shapes drive from centre of Copenhagen till "Bakken". The numbers of motorcycles can change due to weather. But this year it was perfect, the sun was out and it was a bit chilly,  The motorcycles started to drive from Copenhagen at 7pm and the first motorcycles arrived with the police in front about 7:30pm. It took another 2-3 hours before the last motorcycles arrived at "Bakken" and it counted around 3000 motorcycles at the parking lot. Even though I know of this event taking place every year, this was the first time for me to actually be there and see the motorcycles. There was a good mood and exciting in the air to see what kind of motorcycles would show up. But it was all between Harley Davidson, BMW, kawasaki, Ducarti and the like.... Take a look....  ...

Pure nature, pure love

So yesterday before my fitness I went for an late afternoon walk to a nearby lake and took some photos. I waited till today to work more on them, but a twitter from Tom Walter ( @ HerdingClouds) with a picture inspired me to this picture below. I like to take walk in the nature, today was rather windy and the water was splashing rather high that this was one of the last picture I took with the rose. At first I was going to type a poem by Robert Frost - "Nothing gold can stay" - but found it took too much space. I wanted to keep it somewhat smaller and simpler.... so here it is..... 

Onto something new but first....

There is always the moment, when you are done with your photos, that makes you sort of both happy but also sad to leave the project. That's when I try to find something else to work on or wait a bit longer before I start again.... These were taken while waiting on set of a Danish movie and you just gotta use the time when the sun is out and spring is finally here....  :-)
