A carpet of spring flowers


In the Copenhagen parks, like Kongens Have here, the spring flowers are on their way and the early ones are already covering the grass like a colourful carpet. In the background is the little palace of Rosenborg, where the crown jewels are kept.

A season of colours


It shouldn't come as a surprise for readers of this blog that autumn is my favourite season. The colours are plenty and the weather in Denmark changes almost by the minute, with sun like this one minute and drizzle the next. This photo is from the park Kongens Have, with the palace of Rosenborg in the background.

Looking out

 
The statue of Tycho Brahe mentioned in yesterday's post has a view that the real man probably wouldn't have liked. Rosenborg Palace was built by the Danish king Christian IV, whom Tycho Brahe had a dispute with so serious that he had to move to Prague to serve the Holy Roman emperor Rudolph II.
