The story behind the image

During a business trip to Kopenhagen we spent some time exploring the city. It was quite cold (significantly below the freezing point), yet the weather was beautiful.

When you approach the castle of Kopenhagen (Christiansborg Slot) from Marmorbroen, you can use one of two archways to create a frame for the tower of the impressive castle. This worked even for with the tiny P&S camera I had brought. Lovely.

By the way, looking at recent images from the castle, it seems that the formerly green tower has turned into light brown. I like the colors on my photo better. 😉
