Pure Jade (please view larger)

Location: Wadden Sea (North Sea) at Dangast, Jade Bight ("Jadebusen")

appr. 1 hour after sunset

You're viewing a small tidal pool and a statue named "Jade" created by

artist Anatol Herzfeld, a former student of Joseph Beuys, during high

tide (05.05.2013).

Dangast is a small village situated on the southern banks of the Jade

Bight where chiefly expressionistic painters such as Karl

Schmidt-Rudloff or Erich Heckel worked for a couple of years around

the beginning of the 20th century.

Canon EOS 5D MKII, Canon EF 16-35mm 1:2,8L II USM, tripod, torch for

illuminating some parts of the statue and the tidal pool, long

exposure (appr. 10 minutes), PP in PS 5.1

I'm grateful to everyone for stopping by as well as dropping a line.

Buona visione.

Despite its solitude the place looks immensely large,

very fine range of colors,.

Very interesting! Thanks for the explanation.

I love the sense of solace brought about by the long exposure, along with the lovely colour and light gradation.

The statue reminds me very strongly of the work of Anthony Gormley, whose cast iron human like figures adorn Crosby Beach in Liverpool UK.

Compliments & Best Regards
