Kronborg Castle 3 – 2012

While I was watching these beautiful creatures (who ever said the Ugly Duckling was ugly?) through my lense, two children tried to get close enough to pet them.

They didn’t come to any harm. I think the swan mom must be unsually calm. But don’t ever try to get near swans! They are huge birds, strong enough to brake an arm with their beak andusually aggresive when it comes to defending their young.

Kronborg Castle 1 – 2012

Kronborg Castle is the most famous castle in Denmark. It was allegedly the home of Hamlet and certainly one of the most important Renaissance castle in Northern Europe – and I didn’t take a picture of it…

I only had a short time there, I stick my promise to not photograph the obvious, and I didn’t enter the castle.

What you see here is part of the battlement reflecting in the moat. The reflection was only the second thing I noticed. The first thing was the line of downspouts.
