Unless I have no other choice ( like when travelling ) I feel like good weather and good season is the best time for taking pictures.. it's certainly the time when I'm most motivated to spend a day outside

As soon as you get away from historic cores I don't think there's all that much difference from Europe and North America - of course there are parts of Europe where terrain makes the suburban lifestyle hard, but in flat parts of Europe like Germanic and most Slavic nations then it's basically the norm with single family home suburban lifestyle..
And Denmark is flat - VERY flat - so it makes a lot of sense here as it has for many many years..
This is for example how Århus looked ~1300 years ago:

Yup - like the US the western coast of Denmark get's cool water and big waves from the North Sea ( Atlantic Ocean ), but the shallow water between the many islands and here on the eastern coast the water is calm and heats fast in the long summer days..
It's by no means tropical, but you can swim and enjoy various water activities.. where on the west coast it's more suited for surfing and beach activities..

I initially would have covered Hellerup, but there was some car show going and they had blocked off part of the Strandvej there os I ended up driving up north before we started walking around.. ( hadn't planned on making a seperate photothread then - if I knew I would have taken a lot more photos )
I do also like Hellerup a lot - one of the places I could see myself living..
I have some photos from a few years back somewhere - I should dig them up so I can cover the area more until I get my arse to that area again
( it's also been a while since I visited Tuborg Havn - I really like that place, it's just a shame the development stopped - they had such great plans for
a nice 22 story highrise at the entry to the habour
)
