#200: Huset på Christianshavn
(The House at Christianshavn)

Today I interrupt my Göteborg-Travelogue, cause it's time for my 200th picture on TE. :-D
And I want to celebrate this with a picture from the part of Copenhagen called Christianshavn (Christian's Harbour). I took this picture after my visit of the Opera House.

Christianshavn is a part of the island Amager and is connected to the rest of the centre of Copenhagen by one bridge, Knippelsbro as well as by the two metro lines M1 and M2. Christianshavn was originally an independent town, but later it became a part of Copenhagen.
Christianshavn was established in the 17th century by King Christian IV.
The most famous landmarks in this part of Copenhagen are Vor Frelsers Kirke (Church of our Saviour) and Christiania. It featured also in the international bestseller Frøken Smillas fornemmelse for sne (Miss Smilla's feeling for snow) by Peter Høeg.
The part you can see here is called Christianshavn Kanal (Christianshavn's Canal).

The title of this picture is the name of the famous Danish television series Huset på Christianshavn (The House at Christianshavn).
Hope you like! :-D

Hi, Lars. Congratulations for your picture #200. It is a long way behind you and you continue improving the quality and creating your own style. I think that a part of it are the reflections and I am glad you included in this celebration some reflections too. Here I can see other elements that I have seen in your pictures: boats and bikes. So, we have two bikes that are like the candles on a cake. Each one counts for 100.

Hi Lars,
Gefeliciteerd met deze prachtige 200ste foto. Mooi scherp, mooi blauw en prachtige spiegeling in het water.
groet Rob

Bonjour Lars,
Félicitations pour cette 200ème. Contrairement à bon nombre de vos images celle-ci est très chargée et manque, de ce fait, d'un peu de lisibilité. Elle n'en reste pas moins moins une belle photo. Merci pour le partage. Gérard

Hej Lars,
200 posts already, congratulations !!!
Taken early october but with a strong summer appeal this one, the light is plentiful and allowed for a fine reflection, your PoV is right to combine the boats and the beautiful house behind and so is the framing, very nice result Lars.
Have a nice day,
JEan-Yves

Didi (36420) 2005-11-02 6:26

Bonjour Lars
Les ondes sur l'avant-plan donne un peu de mouvement; le cadrage est appréciable.

Hello Lars Tthe waves on the foreground gives a little movement; framing is appreciable.

Hi Lars,
A very well composed shot with rich colours and superb reflections. The beautiful architecture of the town really enhances the scene. Good clarity with what appears to be prisstine October air. Very well done, Lars.

Hi Lars, Congratulations to your number 200. I have been enjoying all of your pictures here. I can not wait to see your next 200 pictures. You made me feel that I have been traveling with you to know all those countries you have been traveling around. Thanks for sharing all your photos.
Another very nice captured picture here with nice composition of the lineup of the boats and the reflections on the water. Good to have a typical signature Denmark house in the background. Nice contrast and good sharpness.

hojper (2830) 2005-11-02 17:01

Congrats on your 200th. And I like the title although the photo has little to do with that old TV series of the same title. A beautiful shot though. I think many people have a hard time imagining that this is in the heart of Copenhagen. I think you "upped" the colours, but I can't decide if it was a tad too much.

jmdaoudal (82) 2005-11-02 18:10

These lasts where dedicaed to the reflection and they are very good shots.
here the reflectionis almost complete and the house and perspective are well in the frame;
GFood colors and management of wht was certainly a hard light as you photographied when everybody is at lunch here :-))
Well done
Jean Michel

Hallo Lars,
een mooie heldere zonnige foto met een goede reflectie in het water van dit kanaal, plezierig de boten op een rij en dit mooi opvalland huis op het tweede plan.
Proficiat met je 200ste post.
Henk

feather (50122) 2005-11-03 7:11

I am so glad I tuned in today to celebrate your 200th post, although I see I am a little late. Congratulations! Another fine shot with excellent reflections; I like the way they are distorted by the ripples in the water. I look foreward to your next 200.
Kath

supereira (9576) 2005-11-03 7:22

Beautiful shot.I like the reflections in the water.Good colors,light and sharpness.I like the contrast between the houses and the sky.Good job!

Steft (5962) 2005-11-03 9:09

Gefeliciteerd met de nummer 200! :D

Mooie foto, erg feestelijk een kleurrijk. Wat een prachtig zonnig weer had je eergisteren nog. Door de felle zon krijg je snel overbelichting, maar dat is hier nog niet het geval, je had de witte boten goed onder controle. En dat is lastig vind ik zelf.

Vi ses i aften!

capthaddock (28640) 2005-11-03 10:21

Hi Lars - congratulations on yor 200th, and what a wonderful and colourful view, with beautiful reflections, it does have a bright summer feel despite being in october, excellent work.

jbweasle (9294) 2005-11-03 13:15

A very beautiful scene Lars. Strong colours and good reflections. Lots of detail in the architecture and the boats. An interesting picture to gaze at for a while and look for new features: the bicycles, the walking man, the pink flowers...

Emile (20107) 2005-11-03 16:20

aloyho (6109) 2005-11-04 1:03

Hi Lars,
A beautifully taken shot of this nice place with the very attractive boats. I have to agree that the reflections again spiced up this scene and you have indeed managed it superbly. I also enjoyed the very beautiful colours. Congratulations for your achieving the 200th!! All the best.

papagolf21 (56715) 2005-11-04 5:39

Bonjour Lars,
Félicitations pour votre 200ème publication. Cette image nous incite à aller nous rendre à Christianshavn pour bénéficier de ce havre de paix.
Une très belle prise de vue.
Amitiés.
Philippe

jhm (83276) 2005-11-04 7:53

Beste Lars,
Van harte gefeliciteerd met uw 200e foto op TE, ik heb veel geleerd door uw voordurende foto waar men iets uit kan leren, ook omdat de nota steeds een grote waarde heeft. De foto's blijven een Deens voorbeeld en mogen qua kwaliteit en samenstelling gerekend worden tot een van de hoogste niveau, wat van alle beelden niet op TE niet kan gezegd worden.
Beste Lars eenmaal deze goede weg ingeslagen houd deze richting aan, wij houden er van!
Prettig weekend,
John.

bertolucci (11994) 2005-11-04 11:02

Gefeliciteerd met je 200ste Lars! en je hebt een mooie gekozen om het te vieren.
Heerlijke kleuren, licht diagonaal gecomponeerd, mooi vervormde reflecties en natuurlijk ons weer net nodige over Denemarken leet. Heel mooi werk!
Qua titel wellicht een idee voor een nieuw 'TV serie namen' thema :-)
Goed weekend toegewenst uit Rotterdam,
Bert

alexlie (5359) 2005-11-04 13:46

Hi Lars!
I see that you like using the reflections :) Photo is well composed, nice colors and contrast. Sharpness is good too.
Congratulations for your 200 photo!
Regards.

Leonie (8647) 2005-11-05 20:10

Hi Lars,

Greetz, Léonie

jrj (34779) 2005-11-06 5:22

Very nice this compo lars. Fine details included with the house and the boats. The water colour and reflections is a top added 'bonus' in the compo. Good work and a worthy photo for your #200th. Congrate and good luck wth the next to come...

Gix (3559) 2005-11-07 4:44

Hi Lars,
compliment for your 200° post on TE!!
The reflexes do give always a big fascination to the composition and the image is sharp, bright and for some reason 'cheerful', as a new intense day... The house and the boats, a mix of sensations, the joy to explore and the quiet of the return..!
ciao, Giorgio

ChristianS (2997) 2005-11-07 12:25

Hej Lars,
Congratulations to your 200th post and this picture is a nice celebration. I like the perspective with the boats and the beautiful house in the background. The colours and contrast are lovely and I like those distorted reflections on the water. Well done!

Mvh, Christian

AiresSantos (42826) 2005-11-08 9:48

Hi Lars.
Very nice shot, with fantastic reflections.
Gorgeous composition colors.
Thanks for posting.
Best Regards
Aires dos Santos

danyy (69393) 2005-11-09 7:38

Bonjour Lars,
une composition qui plait par sa simplicité et son côté sobre.
On y retrouve un joli coin de pays en bordure avec d'exquises couleurs et lumières, un ciel bleu toujours agréable quand il laisse passer le soleil.
Un bon cadrage.
Regards.
Daniel.

quantabeh (5203) 2005-11-29 2:16

Hi Lars,
this is a really wonderful picture of this house and the boats docked at the harbor. I like the colors, which are well saturated, and the great and rich composition.
lovely work.
regards,
Behrang

jafadabret (40281) 2006-03-02 11:29

Bonsoir Lars,
Les reflets sont excellents avec de très belles couleurs. Une composition qui mérite beaucoup d'éloges.

riclopes (33131) 2006-05-25 4:01

Hej Lars
I guess it's too late for congratulate you for the 200th, as you are getting to the 300th. Really beautiful, this vertical composition, with the canal, boats and the attractive façade in the back. The quality is excellent making the reflections in foreground very appealing. Very good shot!
Hilsen,
Ricardo

paura (39170) 2007-09-27 16:32

Lars,
The composition is very beautiful here. The boat details are very vivid and de colors with nice adjustment. Well done.

Paulo

emjleclercq (14494) 2007-10-01 14:34

Sorry, I had also missed this 200th picture of yours, but I was very new on TE at the time. The boats are a bit to modern for my personal taste, but the color of the water is superb with vey nice reflections.

All the best,

Emmanuel
