The last light of the day on the beach. The last showers have passed, the sun set 10 minutes ago and the Hille is playing a bit of drama.
Especially in the evening after the rain, the air is very clear and visibility is very good. There was virtually no wind and the Baltic Sea was very smooth. The headland on the horizon gently separates the reflections on the water from the sky.
As an exile from Fehmarn, where I grew up, I am always drawn to the water in Denmark, and I love the Baltic Sea.
The clouds are quite undramatic in themselves, no big towers or wild shapes, more like a churned-up, fluffy carpet. The last light of the day tries to catch the viewer's attention in a small strip. That's why the eye lingers before exploring the rest of the picture.
The picture radiates tranquillity and is effective due to its reduced colour and peculiar colour scheme.
Also ideal in large format for offices or doctors' surgeries.
Photographed with a Nikon D850 and a 1.4/24 mm AF-S Nikkor, edited with Bridge/Photoshop on Mac.
