Courtyards


I love courtyards and always seek them out: it's the way they are enclosed and mysterious, calm places in the bustle of a city.  During our recent trip to Copenhagen I discovered quite a few that I really liked.





This one is Danmarks Kunstbibliotek in Nyhavn
 
 
 
 
enhanced by all the green




a quiet, calm space.





This one is in Nyhavn too





detail





I really like the shutters.





The entrance to this one held a lot of promise





which was fulfilled





a hidden place, peaceful and calm





that mustardy yellow looks so good against the black of the timbers




it's my favourite.




Here's a much grander affair,




off  H.C. Andersens Boulevard.
