In the Groningen village of Onderdendam, the old windmill reflects in the calm waters of the Boterdiep. The sun slowly sinks behind the horizon, enveloping the village in warm gold and soft pink, as the last light glides over the roofs and the wooden boat on the shore.
This photo captures the tranquillity of a summer evening in a characteristic Groningen village, where time meets silence. The historic mill forms the heart of the image - a symbol of diligent work and the age-old bond between man, water and wind. The reflection in the still water enhances the sense of harmony and balance this moment exudes.
The shot exudes the atmosphere of the north: open, down-to-earth and peaceful, with a hint of nostalgia. An ode to the Groningen landscape and village life along the water.
