The old customs house, from the waterside, when it was a restaurant. The rescue ladder on the harbour front is an important element in the composition. I had to return several times to the location before I got the right weather conditions to take the photo. I have called it "Up to Standard" with reference to the ladder and the name of the building. It was taken early in the morning, before the first harbour bus comes roaring and disturbs the reflections in the water.

As an artist, Karen Vesterager, has been following the same path since she started as an artist. The approach has been advanced artistic post-processing. The purpose is to create beautiful and enchanting artworks, that should to some extend be appraised as paintings rather than photos. The process is highly precise and controlled. The color harmonies are used actively. The final artworks blurs the line between reality and dream.
