Denmark - Copenhagen - Nyboder 07_DSC7298
I've a few more Nyboder shots to upload, hopefully no-one minds a number of variations on a theme......
The Nyboder District is one of my favourite places to wander around Copenhagen. It's not a large area but there's plenty of photographic opportunities.

From Wikipeda : "Nyboder (English: New [small] Houses) is a historic row house district of former Naval barracks in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was planned and first built by Christian IV to accommodate a need for housing for the personnel of the rapidly growing Royal Danish Navy and their families during that time. While the area is still commonly associated with the name of its founder as one of his numerous building projects around Copenhagen, the Nyboder seen today was in fact, except for a single row of houses in St. Paulsgade, built from 1757.
Nyboder is today very much associated with their yellow colour and "Nyboder yellow" is in Danish often used as a generic term to refer to their exact hue of yellow. However, the original colour of the development was red and white."
