Copenhagen celebrates quarterfinal victory over Czech (July 3, 2021)
Only four teams remain in the 2020 UEFA European Football Championship (UEFA Euro 2020 held in 2021). Denmark is the biggest underdog and Cinderella story. Beating England at Wembley Stadium is going to require another miracle.
Sunset with moon and Venus from Three Arch Bay (Laguna Beach, California – December 28, 2019)
I could show another photo from Europe today, but for the U.S.A. holiday I’ll throw it back to a good ol’ American beach.
The next day I climbed to the top of the tower for the opposite view, but it was the middle of the day, instead of after sunset, so not quite as impressive lighting-wise.

Great band, great people, great beer, great cause!
Wieliczka Salt Mine (near Krakow, Poland)
Nearly everything in today’s photo is made of salt, including most components of the chandeliers, the statues, wall carvings, and floor.
The Wieliczka Salt Mine is usually crawling with tourists, but because of Covid-19 the number of people entering the mine chambers has fallen off considerably. 800 or so steps are descended on the tour. Luckily, an elevator is available to get you up and out at the end. I asked our tour guide how many times a day she has to walk all of those steps, and she told me 2 or 3 times a day before Covid and just 2 or 3 times a week since the mines reopened during Covid.
For a photographer, like me, this was an optimal time to take the tour as my photos of the place aren’t filled with tourists.
Canal living in Copenhagen
How would you like to board your watercraft directly from your abode?
Copenhagen is undergoing a building boom, especially along its waterfronts, as housing prices continue to soar while the prices in the country decline. It’s very appealing, especially on a summer day, to live in a place like this.
