Aalborg Airshow

This weekend it was once again time for an airshow in Denmark.
This year it wasn’t in “Roskilde”  Which was the location of the last years airshow. – This year we had to travel to “Aalborg” which is in (almost) the other end of the country compared to Roskilde.

The event is called the Danish Air Show, and it has been confirmed that there were 130,000 people who met up this year. Insane. Even though it was raining almost all day.

To put that amount of people in perspective:

each year we also have 130.000 people attending the coveted festival “Roskilde Festival” in Denmark. And that’s a huge festival!

OR:

The same amount of people living on the island “Guam” in the Western Pacific.

The program was the coolest I’ve seen so far, and there’s a bit of something crazy needed to beat my enthusiasm. The program is shown below:

All in all, it was an amazing day. With a lot of noise and amazing experiences. The only downside of the day had to be the weather. But it’s not always possible to get everything you want i guess. 😉
However, the weather didnt hold us down. We held our ground from 0700 in the morning to 1700 – with our only “food” being almonds and a couple of bottles filled with water. We went home soaking wet, but with a smile on our faces.

Here’s some of my results from yesterday, Danish Air Show 6/10 2018.

Roskilde Airshow ~ Sunday

~This Post has the same text as the previous post regarding airshow~

This year’s Roskilde Airshow has been an absolute pleasure. Not only because of the stunning French Rafale, Danish F-16 or the Swiss Super Puma – but especially because of the weather! Very pleasantly surprised. I expected either big gray dull clouds OR a clean even more dull blue background. But we were very lucky with the weather!..

The program this year for roskilde airshow was a bit thin. Not boring at all, just thin!. The highlight both Friday Saturday and Sunday was undoubtedly the French Dassault Rafale from I’Armée de l’air, followed by the Danish F-16. Not to mention both mustang and spitfire. What a sound that can come from both a V12 and not least a Rolls-Royce Griffon engine!. Whoa!

All in all, it has been a great weekend, with lots of cool hours with good sound, good pictures and good weather. So in spite of my 6 month wait, it was worth it!
It is absolutely recommended for anyone who has a little interest in airplanes, mostly because the program is very varied so there is little to suit all tastes

Structure-Architecture-Monday

If you read my previous post, you would know I’ve been to Kastrup and that I’ve taken picture of arriving planes. But what you don’t know is – that my dad and I didn’t leave Copenhagen afterwards.
We went downtown! Deep inside the city. After a couple of metro-issues though.
Theres a lot of beautiful and amazing buildings in Copenhagen. A lot of architecture.
Den blå planet // The Blue Planet  Is Denmarks biggest aquarium and the building itself has one of the most exceptional shapes I’ve ever seen on a building. Truly amazing to witness.
Den Blå Planet is the gray building.
Later we went into the heart of Copenhagen and discovered the bronze/round building. I’m going to be honest – I doesn’t really know what’s it called or what they’re doing in it.
But it sure does look extraordinary beautiful. All the round shapes.
Not really a whole lot of things to say more about it. Just enjoy the pictures!

A hello from the “unknown”

Over a couple of weeks now we’ve been “interrupted” by this fella. An f16 suddenly – multiple times – filled the silence of no-mans-land with the loud low fly-bys.  I was quick enough all the times to RUN in the house and grab my camera. Well, my quick reactions resulted in a broken glass, and a ruined letter due to water damage. WORTH IT!
It’s still unknown to me why we’ve got these honourable visits multiple times, I dont even know where it came from. Skrydstrup maybe?.. As you can see under the wings, the fighter is suited with two fuel tanks. Long practises from the airforce ? It’s all a huge question mark in my head, but one thing I know for sure – I DO NOT complain about the visits. 🙂

Insane-Plane-Monday

 

No pain no gain. That’s the magical sentence for a huge amount of things.
By that I mean – I am NOT a morning person.
It’s 05:30 here in Denmark, and my dad and I took off to Kastrup airport. It’s roughly a 1,5 – 2 hours drive from where we live – depends on the traffic. And no – we weren’t going on vacation – we were planespotting.  836 planes departures from Kastrup each day alone. The same number goes for the arrivals. What’s that an hour?.. 36-ish?.. Kinda yes.
My dad and I arrived at 07:30 and stood there waiting for a plane to come by. Luckily we didn’t have to wait a year or two for a plane!  They came in with a couple of minutes between each other. And no, I know, its not Heathrow! But it’s the best we could do. And I do not complain actually. Even though we didn’t see a lot of heavies – mostly the “small” B737 and A320.
Now I was prepared to the teeth with my tracking-app. 🙂 So I could see when the planes came, where they came from, what type, how high and how fast, what company, how old – YOU NAME IT!  I looked further into the day on the app, and saw that 13:01 there would be landing an Airbus A380 from Dubai! Emirates!. And for those who dont know – thats the worlds biggest airplane. For passengers however.
We agreed that we wouldn’t leave the place without the sight of such a monster.
6 hours went by, and it finally came clear to the naked eye in the horizon. What a bird!
I have posted a few of the pictures from the day here, and of course the biggie at last.

Oldies (2011)

Mont Saint-Michel – From a distance)

This post has the same story as the previous post ”(Oldies 2010)” but there’s a little more interesting story behind these pictures. Well some of them.

The first picture from saint mere Eglise with the doll hanging down the church is just next to an Airborne Museum (Musée Airborne). But why? On the night before D-Day (June 5–6, 1944), American soldiers of the 82nd Airborne parachuted into the area west of Sainte-Mère-Église in successive waves. But for John Steele (the paratrooper at the church) it wasn’t as successive as it should be. John Steele jumped out of his plane the night before June 6th and actually LANDED on the church. He was stuck up there for about two hours before the germans captured him and later escaped.
Unbelievable he still managed to survive the rest of the war.

But what is the huge house/castle?!

Of course! Mont saint Michel!
Mont Saint-Michel is a tidal island and municipality in the region of Basse-Normandie in Normandy, France. It is located approximately 1 km from the country’s north coast, at the mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches. Build in 1523 (pretty old yeah) where it was used as a monastery.

The big canons?
I will tell.

Situated west of Arromanches-Les-Bains in Normandy, Longues-Sur-Mer overlooked the ocean from the top of a 65 meters height cliff, a perfect position where the Germans had installed a four 150 mm guns. On 6 June 1944, at (around 5:30 am) several allied battleships opened up on the battery. When the Allied Armada was in sight, the German guns shot back. The HMS Ajax concentrated its fire on the German battery at a range of 1.000 meters. The battery stopped operating for a short time, but a fire started to shell the Landing ships until 5 pm. The Longues Battery surrendered to British troops the next day with 184 men.

i’ll try to make this short.
Yesterday i found my old old computer with my old disc (HDD) in it.
In 2012 i (thought) i ruined the disc in it and then dumped the computer somewhere in the house for 4 years.
So yesterday i got this brilliant idea to open the computer up, insert the plug and turn it on. It was at this moment i got to see, that my disc was running! But the display still wasnt turning on!…  I concluded that my disc was NOT dead after all!
I ripped my disc out of the computer, and connected to my present pc. And voila! The old windows 7 was running smooth as never before, and best of all! I got to get my VERY FIRST pictures EVER back in my collection. (of course i didn’t think of backup as a 10 year old boy).
Today i have looked every single picture through and even to find out there is potential in a few of them. Here are my favorite pictures from our vacation in France – 2010. 2011 is coming later!

A Cold Evening

 

So. Friday evening / night I took on my big ski clothes, charged the camera and pumped my bike – as I had decided that there should be a photo or two in the frost. Yes. Frost degrees – because it is there the sky is cleanest without miscellaneous summer haze. Fun fact ?. Yes. So I took the bike and drove off to what I believe is the highest peak in my hometown. (Not very high haha) It was dark, cold, wet and creepy. Buuut got a little out of the cold ride Even so,. It all resulted in an icicle of a helmet. No pain, no gain? 😉

The Jungle Book

”The Jungle Book”

Well, yesterday i had myself a little bike-trip a couple of miles away!.. Then i suddenly fell over this forest, and just HAD to explore the secrets of this bizarre place!..
Parked my bike, and went on adventure! A litte path was already made from previous discoveries, i guess, but there was still a huge ammount of branches all over the path. And even worse! – Nettles! Ouch.. (and yes, i wore shorts!) Just like a junge! Haha..
After a little while, i fell over this, as shown on the picture! Just in the evening light! Made a quick decision, and went out into the stream with my tripod! .. Almost sailed away in my shoes!.. This is the result ladies and gentlemen

Watch in maximum quality:

A trip to Austria!

In january i was with my school to Austria to ski. I’ll admit, im not the best at it, and i even ended up on the hospital!! But yeah.. To my luck  the camera had a place in my suitcase! Undoubtedly. So when the whole hotel was deep inside dreamland, i went out to do what I think i’m good at. Well.. At least BETTER at. This is our view from our room at night, amd at early morning.

Rhodes!

Rhodes ! Have just spent 7 days with my family at this amaaazing Greek island ! Although I have hardly had time for the big camera-fuss through the last year , BUT it would still have a place in my suitcase ! Undoubtedly. It was great to get away from the Danish weather ( enough said ) , to the scorching sun ! Wohoo!. I will not write a novel here, from experience i learned that there are many who do not read it!  I just wanted to quickly throw a few of my pictures up . Then I go out and enjoy the weather ! – Hah , joke .

Been a while since a did something on my blog! 9 months i think… – So now i’ve updated the whole page! And pulled it together, and loaded up on a lot of new pictures! So i’m back on track. I guess!

On Tuesday the 2nd I got for the first time seen Søbysøgård illuminated by beautiful sunset and reflection in Søby lake . Did not get quiiiiite enough , so I was allowed to tear my girlfriend with a trip back down to the lake , at 05 in the morning ! just before the sun rose, and gave the beautiful morning light. The images are mixed a little ! .. Well… After all I think have ” lucked it out ” as they say 😉

The Star Experiment

It’s been a while since i’ve posted here, the 19th March i belive. Icould come up with a lot of excuses, but i won’t, i just want to say i’ve started on a new school, been really busy, and had my first concert a couple of days ago.
But now to the important part! – I fell over a post on facebook a couple of days ago, ”How To Take Pictures Of The Milky Way?”
I read the post, and i HAD to try it out myself. This is my very first shots, i’m not done with shots like this, and next time i’ll tri to get a little ”motive” in the shot.

Have a nice week!

Yes, so i found this folder, and i was SO happy, then i said to myself – ”I got some of these pictures uploaded on my blog! Time to update them!” So thats what i did. Some of them are new too, i didn’t upload then.
All the pictures are from our lovely Zoo in Odense – Denmark.

Blog updated!

This time im not uploading pictures.
However, i have updated the blog, and thrown out many pictures. Only some of my favorites is in the picture categories now!
I got tires of looking at the ”old” pictures.
And i have updated and putted a new theme on the blog! I think it’s an awesome theme, a little bit more easy to use. If you ask me.
Oh, and i just did a little editing in the ”About” page, but most people wont notice.
Hope you like the new ”fresh” blog!
Have a nice day, to all my followers!
