The abandoned peat factory

Todays expedition went to an old Peat factory in the Northern part of Jutland in Denmark, its actually on the Kommunes homepage for tourists

Kaas Briketfabrik (patent fuel) was builded in 1925 in the moor of Lundergaard.
Ib Nyboe got the idea to make hard pressed briquettes, which was more profitable to carry across bigger areas. During 2. World War, as the factory was producing at highest level, about 600 men worked in the factory.
In April 1966 the factory closed, because of crossing to other forms of fuel and lack of moorearth.
Today the factory is derelichted.
Visit her for more info and guided tour https://www.visit-jammerbugten.com/jammerbugten/plan-your-trip/kaas-briketfabrik-gdk597149

Its a place with quite a history, and 2 men were killed in a big explosion in 1933, and its a big part of the small town, even here, almost 100 years later. Its a place where you should be very cautious, it can fall down around you, and lots of tricky holes in floors and walls. But its a dream place for a photographer with a passion for abandoned places.

Tracks at the sea

After a long week working from home, and staying away from other people than my family, me and the camera took a much needed photon break at the sea. The place is a small coast town, or more a small gathering of summer houses called Rødhus, placed on the west coast of Denmark. At great place, and awesome beach. The pictures show some telltale signs that I’m participating in a Corona Photo Marathon (a Picture a day, while it lasts), and todays subject was “Spor” which is danish for “Tracks” one of those words that can mean many things.

But i got out ! And the weather was great, stay safe out there !

Afterlife of a coal silo

A little more architecture from Aalborg, mostly taken from a new parking house, in the middle of thousands of new apartments shooting up on the old industrial harbor front. The green silo is one of the last vestiges of the old factories, and its actually still in use until 2025, its being used for storing fly ash for the energy companies, and my opinion it still looks pretty nice, in gonna enjoy it for the next 5 years, where they will probably tear it down.

There is also a couple of pictures taken at the House of Music, and the Utzon house. The last two pictures. And single one of my photo buddy while going up through a empty parking house.

All shot on the Fujifilm X-100F, waiting the for the films to be developed from the trip
