This impressive picture shows the striking red lighthouse on the island of Schiermonnikoog, taken on a clear day in early March. The lighthouse towers above the barren dune landscape, a lone sentinel on the North Sea that has been guiding ships for generations. The photo captures the special atmosphere of an early spring morning, when winter has still left its mark but spring is already in the air.
The wide, almost cloudless sky takes up a large part of the picture and conveys a feeling of boundless freedom. The cool blue of the sky harmonises perfectly with the earthy brown tones of the dunes, which are still marked by winter. The vibrant red colour of the lighthouse adds a lively accent and immediately catches the viewer's eye.
