Born in the central Copenhagen 1963. Lived here almost all the time and always by the water - feels really good being by the sea.
Got my first digital 2005 and recently bought 2 new - a Canon EOS 50D and an Olympus E-30.
I'm a rather cheerful soul, but serious about photography.
I will not publish faces without specific permission from the person/s in question.
I don't edit my photos except for a bit of cropping now and then and I don't use a flash.
I try to be as true as possible to what I photograph.
I would be pleased if you contact me and ask, if you are interested in using any of my pictures - do remember that my pictures are copyright, and are not to be reproduced or used in any way without my written consent first - I'm unlikely to refuse, but please have the courtesy to ask first.
Be true to yourself... always
Live in the present
Give a smile
Lend a hand if you can
Don't take anything for granted

"Christian,
Eu vou escrever um testemunho na Língua Portuguesa (do Brasil) e espero que tu não se incomode. Eu acho mais elegante me espressar no idioma que eu melhor domino!
"Desde que o conheci - através de um convite seu para o V&S - e, como sou muito curiosa, fui até a sua galeria então, para minha surpresa, me deparei com uma foto que, para muitos, pode parecer apenas uma "lua na escuridão"! Mas não era apenas uma lua, a sua sensibilidade estava concentrada nesta imagem, no texto e no contexto! Achei fascinante! A foto me transmitiu uma sensação de "infinito" iluminado pela luz de um luar especial! Deste dia, então, não consegui mais parar de procurar por mais imagens maravilhosas! E, a cada imagem, fui descobrindo - como uma pesquisadora - toda a essência que vem de uma alma grande e sensível: pois é nos detalhes - das grandes fotografias - que descobrimos a grandeza de alma de uma pessoa!
Não me arrependo, em momento algum de ter, talvez, invadido o seu álbum impulsionada pela minha curiosidade em apreciar imagens que transmitem todo tipo de sentimento - tristeza ou alegria - mas com uma qualidade de fotógrafo profissional. Sim, pensei que você fosse um fotógrafo profissional e renomado!
Eu acho que este é o seu "Norte" na vida - todos precisamos de um Norte como uma orientação que nos leve para todas as outras direções e, consequentemente, para a felicidade plena!
Viver é plural - as suas fotos remetem esta mensagem!
Fotografar com alta qualidade - é o "momento singular", e é quando deixamos aflorar toda a "vida interior rica" que está guardada dentro de nosso coração, nossa essência como uma pessoa muito especial - e isto é você, meu querido amigo!"

TRANSLATION:
Christian,
I'll write a testimony in Portuguese (Brazil) and I hope you do not bother. I think most elegant write in language that I'll express me better!
"Since I met you - through his invitation to the V&S - and, as I am very curious, I went to your gallery then to my surprise, I came across a picture that, for many, it may seem like just a "moon in the darkness"! But it was not just a moon, it is a great sensitivity concentrated in this image, in the the text and in the context! I found it fascinating! The photo gave me a sense of the "infinite" illuminated by a light with a special moonlight! From this day forward, I could not stop search by for more wonderful photos! And in each image, I discovered - as a "researcher" -, all the essence that comes from a large and sensitive soul: this essence is in the details - from the great photos - and was when I discovered the greatness of his soul!
I do not regret to have, perhaps, invaded his album driven by my curiosity to enjoy images that transmit all sorts of feelings - sadness or joy - but with a quality of a professional photographer. Yes, I thought you were a professional photographer and renowned!
I think this is the "North" in your life - all need a "North" (as in a compass) as a guide to lead us into all other directions and, consequently, for full happiness!
Living is plural - your photos remember this phrase!
Shooting with high quality - is the "moment singular", and is when we let emerge all "our very rich inner life" that is stored within our hearts, in our essence as a very special person - and this is you, my very dear friend!"

"I have the privilege to know Christian for several months and he is not only a very good photographer of life, but he is an excellent administrator of 2flickr groups and above all a very special friend.
Endowed of an extraordinary sensibility, he uses his camera to catch istants of life, fabulous landascapes, beautiful portraits, his beloved sea...all this in an absolute natural way, clean, just as his soul is...:)
pleasant and clever, nice and lovely, Christian is the friend that everybody would like to have!
Christian, I'm very happy to count you as my friend, you know my difficulties in speaking well English-perhaps you don't know that words are not my strong point too...- , I would like to write much more about you, but I'm pretty sure that I'm rendering how extraordinary are you!
take care, always!
:)"4th May, 2010
