Hallo. My name is Birgitte, I am living in Denmark. 
My purpose with this blog is mainly to show pictures of daily life, trying to catch the atmosphere, contrast or humor that might be. As I hope that both my danish and my english speaking friends will take a look now and then, I have decided to write in english.

In addition, I am looking foreward to get to know people around the world, who likes this way to see daily life too. Feel free to write a note, -it would be nice to have a comment-, and let me have a link to your own blog.

I wish you a happy new year.

Birgitte

    Hello Birgitte!

    I just happened upon your blog and was immediately enraptured. What a wonderful talent you have! The colors are brilliant. Also, Denmark is my absolute favorite country. I haven’t been in a couple of years and really miss it. Seeing these pictures has been good for my soul. :)

    I couldn’t´t be more happy than knowing that my pictures make you feel well. Thank you very much for the nice compliment. I have seen your blog http://writeoncoaching.wordpress.com/ and made a link to it, it looks very interesting. Have you seen the link to another writer at my blogroll, awalkabout´s weblog?

    Oh, don’t worry, – We have a saying that says something like “A sweet child have many names”. I don´t mind being related to that :-)

    Thank you. You are welcome to display some of my photos at your blog. Unfortunately, I can’t read the post as I don´t know the letters, – is it about lyrics?

    Birgette,
    Thank you for stopping at my blog today. I am so glad you found it. Now I have found yours and I like your ‘daily life’ pictures. I will visit it often and I will put your blog on my ‘blogroll’ right now.
    Thanks you for the very nice compliments on my pictures too.

  13. giiid on

    I am glad too, that I found your blog, your pictures of the wildlife around you are very interesting. You are at my blogroll now, and I will return to http://gayejohnson.wordpress.com/ to see more photos from Florida, and read what you write about them. 76 years and just started blogging and photographing, what an energy to live up to, for me and others!

    Hello Birgitte! Looks like we were looking at each other’s blogs at the same time :-) I found my way over here from Scott’s blog.
    I really enjoy your blog, and will add you to my blogroll as well.
    Denmark is beautiful, I was there in January 1987. I got married in Roskilde (first marriage) and we went to Copenhagen for a day.

    I live in United States, Scott Depot, WV and I love your blog. I really appreciate all the advise you have giving me in the last few days.

    I will probably never get to visit Denmark, but your pictures let my mind visit online.

    Merry Christmas!

    I am a student at Guthlaxton College in England and I am currently trying to complete my I.C.T assignment. After looking on the internet I found the picture of the rose above. I would like to use this in my assignment. Is this alright with you? Please email back with your reply. Thanks in advance.
    Matthew Willemsen

  34. giiid on

    Hi Matthew. A mail is on its way to you. :-)

  35. Saint Jonny on

    I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog Birgitte. I did a Fine Art Degree specialising in photography, and I think your work is excellent. Please keep up the good work, it brings awe to my days!

    Interestingly, Matthew who previously put a comment, goes to Guthlaxton College, which is the college I was supposed to go to! I went to another one because they offered a course in photography. In fact my sister is currently at Guthlaxton! What a small world.

  36. giiid on

    You are right, Jonny, sometimes it is a small world. Thank you for your kind words about my photos. Do you make art og any kind now?

  37. Saint Jonny on

    Yeah but not nearly as much as I’d like to. I’m dipping back into painting somewhat.

  38. deirdrea on

    Thanks for your comment, Birgitte, and a very happy St. Patrick’s Day to you, too! (I think you should have your own private celebration, even if people in Denmark don’t usually celebrate the holiday!)

  39. giiid on

    Good idea! I will join this tradition, and make a nice St. Patrics dinner for my family tonight. :-)

  40. WildBlack on

    Nice to meet you Birgitte. Good to meet people around the globe with same interest and different things to share. I love life reflections too.

    I have seen your blog, you are a great photographer! I have made a link on my blogroll immediately.

  42. WildBlack on

    Thanks a million! For the inspiring words and your support! And for adding me into your blogroll. :D I dont really have an answer at the moment for your question. But on that note I can say one thing..When we love what we do, then it usually comes off real good! I love photography and My camera. :D
    I’ll keep in touch.
    Take care.

    Hello from 6789!!!

    beautiful blog you have there. I heard Denmark is a wonderful place. There are a lot of beautiful designs coming out from your country. Really would like to visit there one day.

      Hi Shux. Sorry, I haven´t seen your comment before today, it went to the spambox because of the link. Thank you for the compliment, I will send one back, your blog is most entertaining and a pleasure to see. I wonder how you manage to find all these interesting designs. If you ever decide to visit here, you know where to ask for advice.

  44. Shari on

    Birgitte,
    I am a teacher in Daytona Beaach Florida and I came upon your blog while searching for a picture to represent hope, encouragement and the feeling that ‘yes’ even in these really hard economic times, we can work together to help children. Would it be alright if I use your photo collage “Yes we can” in a PowerPoint presentation I am doing? I will credit your work. I also enjoyed looking at many of your photographs and I hope some day to travel to Denmark – your work is compelling! Thanks.

    • giiid on

      Hi Shari.
      Thank you for asking, and for your kind words about my work. You are very welcome to use the collage in your work with supporting children. I couldn´t think of a better way to use it, and I feel proud to be a tiny part of your Power point presentation.

      As a Florida citizen, I think you better choose summer for a visit! Please let me know if you need any information by then
