The Slufter is a beach plain on the Dutch Wadden Island of Texel, which is largely enclosed by dunes and is in open connection with the North Sea, creating a salt marsh landscape.
The Slufter is part of the National Park Dunes of Texel. The area is owned by Staatsbosbeheer. It has an area of over 700 ha (land and water). In the southeast corner is a viewpoint and an entrance. In the southern part of the area one can "wander". This part is probably the most frequented salt marsh in Europe.[1] To the north and west lies a large resting area.
In a strict sense, "the slufter" is the name of the creek(s) that flowed through the area. The 'Vlakte van de Slufter' - also known as the Slufter Valley or the Slufter area - is nowadays usually referred to simply as 'De Slufter'.
Nowadays people also speak of slufters and sluft deformation in other places - e.g. on other Dutch Wadden Islands - to indicate beach plains constricted by the dunes, where the influence of ebb and flow is present. These terms are toponyms; they are derived from De Slufter on Texel.
Hello everyone and welcome to my work on the wall !
My passion is landscape and city photography with a side-step to portraits.
I work a lot with ND filters so I can create a slow shutter speed during the day.
Have fun looking at the photos
Greetings Maurice..
