 Danish "Hygge" concept is the art of enjoying indoor life in the Scandinavian countries where the weather can get ruthless and merciless cold, wet and windy. Over the centuries the Danes have created design furniture to look at and sit in, designer lamps that spreads an even cozy light through the room, nice bread and cheese, and in recent years; the Scandinavian countries have excelled in coffee-making. It's so cool that New York have developed the Williamsburg part of the city as a copy of it. But they don't have this:
This Sunday morning, having strong coffee in the handmade clay-mug, a patato-sandwich and warm and fresh bread from the stone-owen with "Ole Ole Cheese", I noticed this lady who enjoyed the wifi-less cafe, knitting some warm wool clothes for the winter.
This is the essence of being Scandinavian and why we feel like one family in a big universe. Leica M10-P with Leica 50mm APO-Summicron-M ASPH f/2.0. © Thorsten Overgaard.

 If your life was a party, the funeral can be a blast. Many friends were sharing stories from a rich life of Jørgen Madsen at the memorial in Church of Scientology in Copenhagen, making the farewell the party he had requested. In this photo Stinne Danneskjold Siracusano is telling about when Jørgen was traveling on an airplane, getting into the trouble you can only dream of: A stellar moment in aviation history and typical of Jørgen's life. There was many grand moments in his life, fast uphill and roaring downhill, making the farewell an uplifting remembrance. Leica M10-P with Leica 50mm APO-Summicron-M ASPH f/2.0. © Thorsten Overgaard.
Amidst end of life, there's new life too. A few children at the event in Copenhagen. Leica M10-P with Leica 50mm APO-Summicron-M ASPH f/2.0. © Thorsten Overgaard.

"I have enjoyed enjoyed your Master Class Series for the M240, M10 and the Q. They have been most helpful and informative to improve my skills with those cameras. I hope you are working on a similar offering for the Leica SL. I have recently purchased the SL and I am amazed with the versatility and flexibility with my complete series of M lenses. The 75mm SL-lens has produced some stunning results that has made the SL camera system with M-lens options a joy to work with.
P.S. Looking forward to one day accompanying you on one of your Workshop adventures."

"I have enjoyed your newsletters for several years now. And I find that your insight into what makes a good photograph is right on the mark. Your earlier comments were very interesting and encouraging for those of us who cannot truly afford an M Leica but love the rangefinder style experience. Thank you again for your newsletter."
