The story behind the image
There’s something magical about the sea. Whereever in the world I visited the shores, it usually was a positive and re-balancing experience. I think this is because of the sheer size of the sea. That’s why I love to travel to the seaside.
Combine this with the magic of the ‘Blue Hour’ (the periods after sunset and before sunrise) and you will get stunningly beautiful and impressive images.
This is what we experienced during our 2019 to Bansin, a village in the North-East of Germany, situated at the Baltic Sea on the island of Usedom. It is a tourist village but it’s not too busy which makes it very special. You get all the amenities of a real tourist destination without the frenzy of the masses.
I took this photo from the beach looking west. The sunset had taken place a couple of minutes before, and now the ‘Blue Hour’ had begun its transforming of the light. The hills on the left were dark already, adding a sharp contrast to the beautiful colors of the sky. – A versatile image that can be cropped in many attractive variants.
Lovely.
