In 2004 Australia was being drawn into the war in Iraq. A lot of Australians were opposed to the war, but the politicians wouldn't listen.
On a nice sunny day several hundred thousand people gathered around Hyde park in the middle of the city to demonstrate and express their opinions against Australia entering into the war.
I was of the belief that the war was a mistake in the first place and was totally unjustified, so I was decided to join the demonstrations and at the same time see if I could take a few photos.

Andy and Tink had their first baby...a little (and very hairy) girl names Mia.
This was also one of those periods where I was checking out what it would be like to have a beard.

My grandad passed away in 2003.
He was getting old and was getting tired of living so he decided to end it.

With EDI I went on a field trip to visit one of the big containerships in Botany Bay.
It was facinating to see the size of those ships.

I celebrated Christmas and New Year with my parents in Thailand.
We spent the time in the Northern Part of Thailand in the Golden Triangle around Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai.
We rented a car for a couple of days and got to see a lot including all the hill tribes that still to this day live in this part of Thailand.

In 2003 Kenneth got married to Anica. I was asked to be the best man by Kenneth.
The wedding took place at a homestead in Sofala three hours drive west of Sydney.
It was a wonderful weekend surrounded by wonderful people.

My brother passed away in the end of 2002. He had been suffering badly from his disease for almost a decade and eventually it got the better of him.
I still miss him a lot even though we weren't close when he was alive....but I still feel him close to me to this day!
I still light a candle for him once in a while.
His two biggest wishes in life was to become a professional tennis player...he was a pretty damn good player and I never played against him because I didn't have a chance.
His second biggest wish was to get himself a girlfriend. This is one of the last photos that was taken of him.
I still blame the psychiatric system in Denmark for what happened. They were too focused on treating his disease with medication and never paid any attention on teaching him to live with his disease and provide quality in life.
I still love him very much and I really miss him. I also regret that I wasn't there more for him.
He always looked after me and he has never hurt anyone.
This is the last family photo that was taken.
I would appreciate if you click here to see some of the photos from my brothers life:
May he not be forgotten
