Beach Sunset Scene

This location at the beach of the province North Holland was on my list already for long time. So a few weeks ago I headed for it. But during the one hour drive to it the sky became fully clouded so my hope for a beautiful sunset evaporated. While taking (long exposure) pictures there all at a sudden and just ten minutes before sunset, the sun dropped from behind the clouds and set the sky on fire. Petten, 2019.

 

Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!

 

The poles at the beach of Petten are a monument, remembering the old village of Petten which was flooded away by the sea two times over about 600 years. The monument consists of 160 poles, forming the foundations of ten houses and a church.
