Hi, and welcome to caedes.net :) I hope you will like it here. I'm really impressed with your photos I must say. I'm looking forward to seeing more from you. I'm curious about your name. ^_^ It sounds like you got Scandinavian heritage, it even sounds very much like Swedish to me. :) (I'm from Sweden myself.)
Hi there again. Thanks for the nice comment on my user page. I'm glad you like some of my work. :) I'm sure I'll continue to enjoy what you submitt here. You seem to have a goood eye for spotting nice subjects.
From an American point of view there's rather little difference between the countries of northern Europa. ^_^ The name you have is quite typically Swedish. It could be Norwegian or Danish maybe but they usually have a different ending of the surname (like Johnsen). I hope you get to know about your family history. There's usually some record somewhere to look up. Good luck with that.
Cheers,
Klas
