About
I am a man from Mårslet, a small town outside Århus. Århus is Denmark’s second largest city. I was born in 1954 in a small town in West Jutland, Ribe.
I was educated both as a teacher and as a landscape gardener.
I have three children, two girls, born in 1988 and 1990, and a boy born in 1998.
After a long period having trouble with my right leg ( resulting in being operated 3 times in my hip) I was lucky to return to work in 2011 as a gardener – and even a real dream job for me: In “Den Gamle By” – “The danish Old Town Museum” in Århus.
And why did I decide to make this blog?:
I made this blog to show some impressions from my life in Denmark. And my travels around the world.
My language is Danish – but I chose to use English for my blog – to reach world with my pictures. And to get in touch with photo bloggers worldwide – to learn and to share experiences, ideas and inspiration with people in other countries.
I love to travel – and have always had this as my great interest and passion. And through my blog and other bloggers from around the world I travel now – every day!
The purpose of this blog is to tell YOU about one of my great passions – photography!
The following photos are a little selection of the photos I captured from my region in 2008 and 2009.
They were the first photos published on my blog January 30, 2010. So they – and the comments to them – continues to be here:
Winter in Denmark
Shadows in white
Cold and white
……is beautiful
but………
spring and autumn are better
– and SUMMER is BEST!
Roses in my garden:
……biking and walking around my little town:
The colours of all seasons are beautiful –
And so are the light and shadows ……

Hello Truels
You’re an excellent photographer – such beautiful images! I also dream of buying a SLR digital camera, but that’ll take quite some saving up, and I still have much to learn about photography.
I look forward to reading and learning more about your hometown, and about Denmark in general.

Hej Truels
Ja, jeg er i gang med at lave en ny blog. Jeg har jo brugt pixelpost, men der er ikke lavet opdateringer til software de sidste to år, og da jeg den anden dag sad og læste inde på pixelposts forum gik det bare endelig op for mig at projektet er dødt. Så jeg tog en dyb indånding og slettet hele databasen 😦 Alle billeder skal skal blive uploadet igen!
Hav en fantastisk mandag, vejret er så fint her i København 🙂
