Limhamn is a wealthy district in the southwest outskirts of Malmö, right next to the sea. It used to be a town of its own until 1915 and Limhamn has its own post address. The residents of Limhamn are still considering it a bit independent from the rest of Malmö, since most of the problems with crime and segregation haven’t reached the district yet. It has 5 373 inhabitants. I went on a photo tour there on Easters Eve.

Limhamn’s town center:

Wesleykyrkan, a cool American looking church, especially with these vehicles.

This nice residential building, called Mannhem, is actually in Fridhem, that is close to Limhamn.

Modern houses at Ribersborg.

There are many nice villas and even mansions around Limhamn and the district Bellevue, but they will be included in later threads. Unfortunately there are also many ugly yellowbrick or grey residential blocks from the 60s.

Thanks for comments!

You need to buy a software called Photomatix and when you take photos and use the auto bracket function, if there is one on your digicam. It takes 3 different exposures that will be mixed in Photomatix.
