Harbor
Sydney Opera House is the most photographed building on the southern hemisphere. As a Danish Fine Art photographer, I am very proud, that the architect Jørn Utzon who made the Operahouse is Danish too. This is a view of Harbor Bridge and the Operahouse just as the Sun is rising.

But Strasbourg is much more than administration, the old center of Strasbourg has a long and very interesting history. One of the pearls is the Pont Saint-Martin.

Curly Tree at Brorfelde
I have a soft spot for curly funky looking trees, and I was so happy when I found this one, nearby Brorfelde observatory. I arrived a few minutes before sunrise.
The observatory in Brorfelde played a central role in a childrens Christmas tv-series a couple of years back.

Koks in Copenhagen
When you come around the corner, in the center of a city, and you see something like this, you can help but thinking 'WTF?' I investigated when I got home, at it turned out to be a part of the restaurant Koks, from the Faroe Islands. They had made a popup restaurant in Copenhagen for two months. A part of the dinner was one serving in this little cottage. --Jacob Surland

I went to Lac de Roue in the wonderful French Alps. There is a great view of Col des Portes in the distance. I spend a couple of hours shooting at this location.

Angels Fortress in Rome
We went down to the riverside during the day, to shoot the Castel Sant'Angelo from below.
We had the feeling, that it was probably not the safest place in Rome after dark. And yet, we had seen many night shots from down there.
We decided to take the Blue Hour up around the Vatican, and then work our way down here to Castel Sant'Angelo, and take the late blue hour or the first of the night if we felt safe.
By the time we got down to the stairs leading to the riverside, a few people hung around in the area. I started the descent of the stairs, looking carefully around.
I didn't get more than 10 steps down, and the stairs were splashed in what looked exactly like fresh blood, and I turned around. Even if I wanted a photo from down there, I didn't want it that bad.

Old war aeroplane
Sir Peter Jackson (Director of Lord of the RIngs) has his private collectoin of World War 1 aeroplanes stored at the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre Blenheim. This is one of the first aeroplanes used in war, but you can also find the red baron among a lot of other great planes. What really is impressive, is the way each scene is built up. It's really amazingly detailed and very natural looking. If in the neighbourhood of Blenheim in New Zealand, don't miss out on the Aviation Centre.
