Hi all,
Just came back from West-Jutland in Denmark. A week in a cottage situated at the Ringkôbing Fjord. As always in Denmark, we had a marvellous time.
Here is a small selection. The rest is found here.

Glad to hear you had a marvellous week Martin, welcome back

Great photos so far, really liked the 4th one with the sand.
it's dynamic and I like the colours which go well together and are separated by the dark horizon, very nice

How many shots did you make in total?

Well, hope is probably not the right word. How can we not like images like that?

What an opener you have in No. 1. That and No. 3 I do like very much. No, wait (washes the fingers intensly...), strike the "like" and put "love" instead.
Stunning!

In No. 2, is that a bird walking in shallow water? Would be a very good picture but for me pales in comparison to the ones around it.
And it is only for that reason that I'm not as blown away by the last one, which is a very nice sky, indeed.

Thanks Stefan,
I pushed the button more then enough , but I like to edit down to the bone. The ones on my site, will probably survive the edit process.

With the exception of 3 or 4 hours the weather was mostly cloudy and overcast. No rain though, but the threat was there on several occasions.
Best regards,

Martin.

Thanks Ralf,
The bird shot (heron fishing) was 50 metres from our porch. It is indeed very shallow water. A dream location to spend a week "in nature".
The last one is a cliché, but it was one of the spare moments the sun coloured the sky like that.
Best regards,

Martin.

The first three images I like, very nice minimalism.

Wonderful pictures Martin. I especially love the picture of the beach (third one above). You have captured that effect with the waves of sand perfectly!

Regards

I hate you Martin!!!

I've been working all week in lousy weather with a streaming cold, you, on the other hand have been enjoying Danish hospitality, food and beer!

Nice photos by the way.
Cheers, HG

Ah, the evil W word!

It's too long since I was in Denmark, or Scandinavia come to that. I'm missing the warm welcome and good atmosphere that seems to cover the whole region.

Still, I can look at your photos and dream....
