I'm a gay graphic designer.

I live in Christiania, Copenhagen.

 

The more pictures I take and the more I think about photography, I find that it's all about light.

The light in a pair of eyes, on a face or in a situation - can make the difference between a flat observation and creating a set of emotions.

I hope to be able to keep some variety in my stream - expect the unexpected! - and also sometimes to bring a smile on your face.

 

Thanks for stopping by - and thanks to all the people from flickr I've met; both in real and in the virtual world. You rock!

 

Respect my copyrights - these pictures are mine! If you'd like to use one of my pictures it's very easy to drop me a line :-))

 

And have fun …

Nis, let me just say that you’re one photographers on Flickr that I evny. I’ve never really been able to achieve the artistic side of photos and that’s something you do masterfully. And yes, you may be right… we’re complete opposites on the surface but I totally agree that we have a connection. Your photos inspire me to look past the technical exercise of taking a shot and really try to find the art in photography. I’m really glad we ran into each other in Macro Monday. Who knew that tiny little group would bring so many people together! Keep shooting buddy!

Nis has a great eye for photos and I like all the new things I discover in them. His portraits almost breath as I look at them. He notices details in the world that I love seeing through his eyes. Nis is also very supportive and generous in his comments. I'm so glad our paths have crossed.

Well Nis, I read your other testimonials figuring I could steal a sentence or two out of each one and kinda cut and paste it together.

Well Nis, I read your other testimonials figuring I could steal a sentence or two out of each one and kinda cut and paste it together. Since mines on top everyone would think they stole from me right?? I think Val said it best since her thoughts come straight from her heart. My brain is controlled completely by my funnybone and thusly results in rambling testimonials like this. You know I always enjoy your comments and friendship and feel very lucky to have you as my contact...waves...

Today is Nis's one-year anniversary and a great opportunity to say how grateful I am to have had him as a Flickr friend for a good part of that year. He is a friend indeed: a warm generous heart. And that shows in his pictures--the affection that he showers on just about everything.

I've been part of this wonderful Flickr community for almost a year now, and I feel the time has come to say a few words of appreciation about those fine souls who have made me so welcome here. Nis was one of my first contacts here and as I was slowly dipping my toe in the water he was forever there with words of encouragement and kindness. His photography has - to my untutored eye, anyway - developed apace in the last few months. He is forever challenging the viewer with different perspectives and ideas. His emotions constantly come through in his photos - not an easy task I've discovered. I love the way his photostream is so totally unpredictable and the way he gives us a glimpse of his life through his images. Thank you Nis for your friendship, your encouragement and, not least, your endlessly wonderful photos. xxx

Nis was one of my first flickr contacts. Someone who's humanity is reflected in the pictures that he takes and has taken and no doubt will continue to take. Nis is someone who cares and someone who shares. Its really nice to know that the human spirit is still alive and Nis demonstrates this in so many ways. A talented and gifted graphic designer, a great mind and a great sense of humour. Your modesty becomes you:) Enjoy your day.
