The best photos of Month 1

by Em Fo Ho

Iceland

Black sand beach’s basalt formations.

Black sand beach’s close-breaking waves with human for scale.

Alison at Glacier Bay.

Hvítserkur, a molten lava formation.

Alison peeking into a crevice that led deep into the cliff.

Thingvellir.

Harpa Opera House.

Inside harpa.

Norway

Bergen.

Mini cruise from Gudvangen to Flam.

Beer and dinner at Flam.

Train ride from Flam to Oslo.

Oslo’s opera by Snøhetta. I have a bone to pick about this. I will explain in another post.

Walking on the opera’s roof, simulating mountain climbing, apparently.

Inside the opera hall.

Denmark

Copenhagen. Københavns Hovedbanegård (The Central Station). The world’s largest wooden vaults.

People taking pictures with the infamously small Little Mermaid.

A beautiful pot + stand in the Design Museum.

I like it here!

After climbing at København’s Klatrecenter, I walked through the free town of Christiania back to the hostel. This is after the town because they don’t like when people take pictures in there.

I love the colors of sunsets. With black.

Sweden

Malmö. Broen.

A mobile. I ate Swedish swedish fish from this store. It was better than American swedish fish. Sweden also has really good chocolate that has only pure ingredients!

Turning Torso.

The view of the bridge connecting Copenhagen to Malmo from atop Empoium’s roof garden.

Holland/The Netherlands 

Keukenhof Garden. Tribute to De Stijl throughout the park.

Six years later and I had to do another peeking picture 🙂

This may be one of the best composed and timed pictures I’ve ever taken?

This is not.

Zaandam. There are many old windmills in a condense area here.

Back in Amsterdam, playing with long exposures, large f-stops, and changing the focus.

Similar style as above but changing zoom.

Belgium

Brussels was mostly fun because of the awesome people at the hostel. Yal rock.

Atomium.

The statue of the boy peeing is more famous, but this is way cooler.
