A friend of mine is a photo journalist at the Politiken newspaper, and he's been given a phone like mine to use for shooting quick shots for the website! The lens is, of course, not great, but it does have a 3.2Mpixel resolution, so it's quite all right for pictures to slap on the internet! I wanted a new digital camera, but since I didn't necessarily need a quiality that would give printable photos, I figured I might as well fork out for this one and have it integrated in my phone so I'm always carrying it around. Also, of course, the phone has a small MP3-player and radio, which is perfect for my 40-minute bike ride to and from work every day! Good investment...

As for the pictures... The point is sort of the same as in many of your picture posts; showing off where I'm from. My dad grew up by the Limfjord, and both he and my grandfather have had jaunts on the fjord in tiny boats when they were young, so in some ways the trip was a continuation of a family tradition or at least a recognition of a personal connection with the fjord.

Excellent shots, Søren! Those skyscapes are really wonderful.

And that's quite a photogenic little country you've got there. :)

I've literally got scores of skyscapes... The area around the Limfjord has a very beautiful light, and on top of that we were so very fortunate with the weather! Also, of course, I'm an early riser, so I was up at dawn on most mornings, and finally, of course, I just bought the phone the day before setting off on the trip, so I had a new toy to break in!

Awesome! That one immedately after the picture of you is just stunning. I love the water and the color.

By the way, you misspelled "harbor" and "interior", but I'm not sure if you misspelled "pebble".

I had to do a double take on the one of your crotch. I wasn't sure what it was at first.

Some of us write in English, rather than that pidgin you use in the Colonies...

LOL

(But yeah, "pebble" was mis-spelt. Not even sure it was a typo...)

What the flark does pidgin mean?

And just for clarification, Texas was never one of the "Colonies". We're a "state", so we're part of "the States", if you want. And we're not a Yank. That's the northern part.

And a surprise to me, we're not a South'ner, because that's appartently the Southeast, not including Texas.

If anything, Texas was its own republic after winning independence from Meixco but before joining in 1845...

If you want, you can call me a Texan. I don't care if Bush has soiled that name for us.
