Our Christmas tree is decorated, and I just love the little handcrafted decoration from Käthe Wohlfahrt Christmas decoration shop in Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Fantastic and enjoyable memories from my childhood that I can pass on to my kids. #Christmas #ChristmasDecoration

The hyper modern Barcode area in Oslo, between the Opera and the railway station, is one of my favourite locale photo spots.

The name Barcode comes from the building style which, seen from a distance, can be compared to a so-called barcode.

I'm wild at heart, and I feel most alive when I am shooting #birds!

This white-tailed #eagle catching a carp was captured a winter day in Pusztaszeri Tájvédelmi Körzet, part of Kiskunsági Nemzeti Park in #Hungary. This national park is known for its rich #bird life.

Being close on a Lynx!

The #photo is taken on of our visits to #Langedrag #Nature Park, where I had the pleasure of taking part in a guided #lynx hike.

The hike and the photo shoot was a fantastic way to learn more about one of the most shy #predators we have in Norway.

Beautiful Brumleby Playground (Crooked House Playground), Copenhagen, Denmark, is my favourite playground. I just love the place!

The idea of the playground was to recreate a piece of old Brumleby to remind us of its fantastic history.

#Flåmsbana is one of Norway's most popular tourist attractions, and shows Norwegian nature at its most beautiful and magnificent. The line is a masterpiece of Norwegian engineering, that stretches from the high-mountain station #Myrdal (867 m.a.s.l.) down to #Flåm (2 m.a.s.l.).

I was once so lucky that I was allowed to enter a part of Istvántelek Train Yard (Istvántelki főműhely) in #Budapest, and take photos of old locomotives in various states.

It is one of the photo shoots I have the greatest memory of...

This is not the #Budapest many of you know, but one of my favourite places, Kelenföldi Erőmű.

When it opened in 1914, the power station was one of the most advanced power centers in Europe, but is better remembered for its ornate Art Deco architecture than its technological wonder.

Getting up early in the morning can be rewarding!

The breathtaking view that met me when I was visiting #Langedrag. A splendid view over a lake and the majestic mountains of Numedal and #Hallingdal. A visit to this beautiful family park comes highly recommended for both young and old!
