Sunday in Copenhagen. Overcast with some light rain here and there. About 35 degrees. We bundle up and take off to wander around a bit in the Nayhvn area.
The lack of sunshine makes everything rather dull and drab. The photos are suffering! Still, I am happy to have my camera and I recognize that the pictures will be a true representation of our experiences on this trip.
It’s pleasant enough to be out and about, exploring a new land we’ve never been to before. And I’m not giving up on the photography. It’s taking a bit more effort, but I am getting some good shots.
After exploring the Nyhavn area we headed off to the Amalienborg Palace to witness the changing of the guard.
By the time we arrive there’s still about 15 minutes till the actual changing of the guard ceremony. The weather, and the fact that it is Sunday seems to be keeping the crowds down. That’s fine with me.
Right at noon the replacement guards march into the square and the ceremony begins.
Very regimental and punctuated by the sound of boots clicking together and rifle butts smacking the cobblestone.
After all is said and done, we head back to the hotel to take a load off our feet and recombobulate. Our plan is to go out in the evening for some night shots using the tripod.
Of course I continue my search for interesting photos. I was struck by these bikes
Bikes are wonderful..and the waterfront with the gorgeously painted buildings!
