Me
Hallo. My name is Birgitte, I am living in Denmark.
My purpose with this blog is mainly to show pictures of daily life, seen from a different angle in attempt 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

Birgitte,
You have a wonderful eye and talent. Thank you for sharing it!
Thank you for viewing!
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?
Hi Bridgett,
I have added you to my blogroll as I see you have me. Thank you for the kind comment you let on my site and I too look forward to seeing more of what you have to offer here. I am from the US and have never been to Denmark but if your page is any indication I would very much like to visit. Nipper
Hello Birgitte
Thanks for the add and keep up the good work. Sorry I spelled your name wrong last time I wrote. Nipper Jane
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 🙂
while browsing I entered here..nice photos am impressed.. if u permit me i will display some of ur photos in my blog
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?
I just came to your blog via “tag surfers” and I like it very much. Maybe you’d like to come and visit mine?
Of course, I will go to your blog right away!
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.
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.
🙂
Hey there. I think you visited my blog from my friend Michaela’s blog today. My family came from Denmark years ago! Fun to see your site. Very nice images.
That was so interesting to read about Solvang http://reclaimingpollyanna.blogspot.com/2008/06/solvang.html . I think I have to send you some “Nisser” at Christmas, it sounds like you really love them :-)How can I post a comment at your blog spot-blog?

Birgitte – I love visiting your blog with your wonderful images and thoughtful musings. I feel a sense of calm as I look at your photographs. Your blog is such a lovely fresh breath of air in what can at times be a very busy and hectic world : – )
Thank you!
Deanna, that was a wonderful compliment, you make me very glad! This is exactly what I am hoping my blog can do. Thank you. 🙂

Thank you so much, toboss! 🙂
[…] colorful little birds are actually the Olive-backed Sunbird. My blogfriend Birgitte from Denmark emailed me with a link to the information and the name of these birds. Thanks a lot […]

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!
Dear Birgitte,
So far, i have so many things to tell you. For exsample, i had surgery on 19 nov. i am having sick leave and enjoying home life!
i enjoy a lot to visiting your blog. just as other people say, you have the special talent of poetic eyes and senses.
i like to see back former calenders, how can I visit???
Keep in touch, Love your Sumire
Dear Sumire.
I am so glad to hear from you, though worried about your health, and I will write you an email right away.

You are always in my mind. Love, Birgitte
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
Hi Matthew. A mail is on its way to you. 🙂
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.
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?
Yeah but not nearly as much as I’d like to. I’m dipping back into painting somewhat.
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!)
Good idea! I will join this tradition, and make a nice St. Patrics dinner for my family tonight. 🙂
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.
Later
Nivin
I have seen your blog, you are a great photographer! I have made a link on my blogroll immediately.
Thanks a million! For the inspiring words and your support! And for adding me into your blogroll. 😀 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. 😀
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.
Greeting from Singapore,
Best Wishes

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.
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.
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
Hello smiling Birgitte 🙂 I should have said much earlier how I enjoy visiting Danemark through your eyes and your talent, your thoughts. The mosaics of your life on your blog always bring inspiration. Thank you for all your share, for your thoughtfulness, your cheerfulness, just you !
Hi Birgitte! Came to your blog via Scott Thomas. Lovely photos! You have a fine eye for details, composition and color. Looks pretty snowy and cold in Denmark as it is here in Massashusetts, USA! Keep shooting! 🙂
http://milkayphoto.wordpress.com/
Thank you for your nice comment. Scotts blog has become a good place to meet new photographers. I´ve just seen your blog, and enjoyed your beautiful photos.
those photos are superb, the view is another way to be with nature and experience the beauty of God’s creation.

Hi Birgitte,
Thanks for visiting my blog and wow I am very impressed with yours! I love your photos and your mix of Danish life, food and travel, Brilliant!
Himself is already a fan of Danish beer so we already have plans to visit Denmark one day (when Little Mr. is slightly older so that the long car trip with two kids is less fraught) You photos only confirm our wish… Denmark looks stunning!
Like you I love meeting people from all around the world, and people who drop into my blog have given me some amazing insight into how other people live, new recipes and doubled my “must travel to” wish list LOL.
You have an excellent blog and I will be back! Thanks!!!
Birgitte,
Since you have been following my blog and been a blogging friend since Day 1, I would love to create a necklace for you as a gift. Take a look at the necklaces I’ve made in the links below and if there’s one you like best (color, style, etc.), I’ll try to recreate it as closely as I can (depending on what beads I still have in a particular style). You can e-mail me your mailing address and I’ll send it to you when I’m done! My preference for the wire color is the non-tarnish silver, but if you like the brown, bronze or rosy gold color better, I can do those as well—not everyone likes wearing silver over gold or a more earthy color. I have beads in virtually every color—but a lot of blues/greens/ocean-inspired colors. Just let me know—I’d love to create one for you!

Thank you Cindy. I have it in my system now. I suppose you would like me to hide it, to avoid spam?
Dear Birgitte –
I believe it is your birthday today? If I got the date correct, I would like to wish you a Wonderful Happy Birthday! I hope that you are celebrating your special day with all your best friends and loved ones, and that it is a beautiful day outside with the perfect weather to have a magical adventure.
May the next year of your life be filled with cheerful memories.
Love and hugs from South Africa,
Reggie.
Hi Reggie, how sweet of you to remember me, thank you so much. You were almost right about the date, it is xxx. Never mind that, I am in birthday mood now, I will buy a cake today. 🙂
Giggle, sorry about getting the date of your birthday wrong, Giiid. I have immediately changed it on my calendar. But I hope you had a lovely birthday (in July) nonetheless, and that the cake was simply scrumptious. 🙂
First of all, thank you for following my blog. I’ve been looking at your photos and you’re great! I will come back and visit often, take care!
Thank you, Christine. 🙂
I thought the colors on your photos are amazing, which I had never experienced in my life. The color itself and the combination of the colors are something I will need to experience in Denmark some day 🙂 Beautiful and impressive!
Thank you very much, I am glad to hear that the colors are “speaking” to you. 🙂
Happy Holidays!
God jul og godt nytt är.
Hilsen
Dina
Thank you Dina, and a Glædelig jul og godt nytår to you and your family. Thank you for visiting my blog. 🙂

Thank you and Merry Christmas and Happy holiday to you too.

In the article, Nisse and the culture of Denmark is expected to be introduced.
I would like you to make a good reply soon.
