buying flowers is a small luxury i treat myself with from time to time. such a joy to look at the fresh green leaves and yellow tulip heads this time of year. outside it is still snowing and snowing but today i thought i would have a snow free blog post : ) more snowy photos to come tomorrow…hoping for a change of weather soon.
have a lovely sunday!

even more snow came tumbling down friday night making the streets quite chaotic. again NE was the photographer taking people photos. i have to get better at this! ida: maybe we should challenge eachother to do something about it : )
the old couple in the first photo we saw walking very slowly arm in arm down the street. i hope they made it home safely.
thanks for your comments everybody, i love to hear from you.

it started snowing heavily again tuesday afternoon so after work NE and i took a walk in the neighbourhood to look at all the splendour. the last photo is taken by NE, as i found it too embarrassing to photograph her. i really like the way it turned out!
have a great friday and weekend folks!

on the art gallery trip sunday we also went to see the exhibition ML 2090 in nikolaj copenhagen contemporary art center. a very fascinating exhibition by the artist ismar cirkinagic. the totalitarian architecture his installation portrays is said to be inspired by george orwell’s science fiction novel 1984. the ‘ML’ in the title of the project stands for ministry of love, another reference to orwell’s book. the full scale section of the imagined ministry of love made quite the impression, but also the small model i really liked. there’s just something spectacular (and a little bit scary!) about this type of architecture, even on a small scale.
the second last photo is taken in another gallery and is dedicated to NE who has an almost unhealthy interest in robot vacuum cleaners. yep that’s the round thing next to the sofa. it even looks like it’s color coordinated with the sofa. neat!

window view



my friend marie and i went on an art gallery cruise of sorts this sunday. these photos are all taken in the gallery called overgaden. i really like the idea carried out in the first photo. sawing books into pieces and assembling them again forming new titles. sorry it’s in danish.
i’ll show you some more tomorrow.

the daylight is gone when i come home and most often that means i don’t take pictures…never really thought about it until today. so i’m trying to break the habit and therefore took these fully artificially lit photos from our appartement this evening.
thanks for your sweet comments and participation in the draw! so many comments!

i recieved a lovely package in the mail the other day from nate and katie of hearblack. it contained beautiful prints and some tea i look forward to trying this weekend - it has the most wonderful scent! thank you guys, so very sweet of you!
note: the porcelain chopping board in the firste photo is a christmas gift from a friend. i took the middle photo walking to the train station after visiting my grandmother. it was a foggy moonlit night with perfect dramatic light.
on a second note: my postcards are going to be in brinja’s shop from tomorrow and to celebrate i’m planning a small giveaway this weekend! i’ll keep you posted.
see you soon
