The iconic narrow houses of Amsterdam line up like notes on a musical score along the canal. Their perfectly rippled reflection creates a hypnotic and serene symmetry.
In this scene, I wanted everything to be part of the same visual rhythm—even my signature, which blends into the water as if it belonged there.

A calm and colorful postcard of a city that breathes history and poetry in every corner.

O histórico porto de Nyhavn, em Copenhaga, ostenta as suas emblemáticas casas coloridas de fachadas altas e telhados de terracota, com o antigo navio-farol dinamarquês Gedser a destacar-se em primeiro plano, com o seu característico casco vermelho e torre de sinalização. Construído em 1895, o Gedser Rev serviu como farol flutuante na costa sul da Dinamarca até 1972, desempenhando um papel crucial na navegação marítima, incluindo participações em resgates durante a Guerra Fria, antes de ser preservado como navio museológico, atualmente gerido pelo Museu Nacional da Dinamarca. Este canal do século XVII, inicialmente um movimentado porto comercial, é hoje um dos locais mais fotografados da capital dinamarquesa, combinando património arquitetónico e naval, onde o Gedser, uma alternativa prática aos faróis fixos em zonas de difícil acesso, representa um importante marco da história náutica local e da herança marítima dinamarquesa.


The historic port of Nyhavn in Copenhagen boasts its emblematic colorful houses with tall facades and terracotta roofs, with the old Danish lighthouse ship Gedser standing out in the foreground, with its characteristic red hull and signal tower. Built in 1895, the Gedser Rev served as a floating lighthouse on the south coast of Denmark until 1972, playing a crucial role in maritime navigation, including participating in rescues during the Cold War, before being preserved as a museum ship, currently managed by the National Museum of Denmark. This 17th-century canal, originally a busy commercial port, is now one of the most photographed sites in the Danish capital, combining architectural and naval heritage, where the Gedser, a practical alternative to fixed lighthouses in hard-to-reach areas, represents an important landmark in local nautical history and Danish maritime heritage.
