I’ve had the profound joy to visit my family in Jyllinge for many years. I thought I recognised the landscape in the painting of H.A. Brendekilde and today I found the evidence on a culture site in the neighbouring municipality, Frederikssund.
Brendekilde lived in Jyllinge for several years until his death in March 1942. The painting shows the lovely view over the fjord to Lilleø and Hornsherred.
By the Danish painter, H. A. Brendekilde, 1857–1942.
I found these pictures in my desk of Samsoe’s beautiful landscapes.
Samsoe is located in the middle of Denmark.
Nordby Bakker was formed during the last ice age. The ice has probably moved back and forth by at least three independent ice thrusts.
In the hills, lead blocks have been found in the form of rhombic porphyry from the Oslo area, cheek diabas from the Vänern area in Sweden and red oyster quartz porphyry from the Baltic / Naturstyrelsen
I think my favourite path is a path leading to the fjord.
Look Mommy, it’s been snowing!
I sat across from a mother with her little son as the train drove through a beech forest filled with anemones.
The flowers stood so close that they looked like snowdrifts in some places.
That goes years back, but the memory emerges when the anemones blossom so wonderfully.
Stay strong all of you ❤
Today I went for a bike ride. This view is in a short distance from my home.
A popular motif in my local area 🙂
The sun is doing its best and a fresh wind creates ripples on the smooth surface of the river.
It’s spring in spite of everything! Stay Safe, Stay Well Everyone!!!
…There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in…
Anthem by Leonard Cohen
Everywhere, there are stories of helpfulness, unity and creativity.
There is light in the dark. There is a crack…
I’ll always remember this beautiful walk:
The wonderful light. The blue sky.
The church tower’s blue dial.
The sky in the sea. A communication in blue.
Joy bubbles. Overflows. Makes you invincible.
Hope fills the heart.

I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times.
But that is not for them to decide.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
