Kalfamer II

Kalfamer II

Walking around Kalfamer on Juist (if you are interested have a look at the explanation of Kalfamer I) is only possible at low tide and only in winter. At other times of the year walking there is strictly prohibited. The place is part of the National Park "Niedersächsisches Wattenmeer" which in itself is part of several parks stretching from the Netherlands in the west to Denmark in the north-east, protecting the whole mudflats in the German Bight. This one is from the mudflat side of Kalfamer. I am especially proud of it as I got the exposure right nearly against the sun.

Wonderful maze of light and texture in the sand.

All the best,

I love the botton 2/3rds of the print. the upper 1/3 is distracting. very nice comp with great tone.

First of all, thanks all for your kind remarks.
Of cause there is a little detail left in the highlights in the upper left, more as you can see on the screen. It is very light though, as I always tried to keep the impression of glistening back light.
I thought of cropping of the sky myself but decided otherwise. I wanted to keep the documentary character of the picture. Without the sky I think it would become more sort of an fine art abstract. Nevertheless I will follow your suggestion and do that with the next session. It will be a different picture though.
