During low tide, the Wadden Sea near Moddergat reveals its jagged bottom structures. In the soft light of the setting sun, the landscape comes to life: clay ridges, mud flats and small streams of water reflect the warm colours of the sky. Here, the transition from day to night proceeds peacefully, while the horizon fades into a sea of gold, orange and soft pink hues.
The textures in the foreground lead the eye deep into the picture and give the image an almost otherworldly feel. The Wadden Sea, normally hidden under water, shows itself here in its pure, rugged form - a unique interplay of nature and tide.
