Sunset at the north pier in Wijk aan Zee
This atmospheric photograph, lightly edited in Photoshop for subtle enhancement of contrast and colour, captures the magical moment when the sun kisses the horizon. The silhouette of the lighthouse on the pier adds a powerful and soothing anchor point in the image. The soft glow of the sunlight breaks through the clouds and reflects calmly on the surface of the water. This image exudes tranquillity, reflection and the mystery of the transition between day and evening.

Recommended material:
- Canvas - for a warm, classic look that goes well with the soft tones of the sunset.
- Alternative: Artframe- for a more sleek modern look.
Recommended size:
- 105 x 70 cm or 120 x 80 cm - depending on the size of the wall. This format retains the calmness of the image without being overwhelming, but offers enough impact to serve as an eye-catcher.
Why this format and material:
- The warm colours and minimalist silhouette come out beautifully on canvas, which adds texture without losing sharpness. Artframe is ideal if you opt for a luxurious and professional presentation.
