Description
The island of Föhr is located about 8 miles off the German coast in the North Sea. The world famous mudflats, which surround the island, are a unique ecosystem for seabirds, harbor seals, shellfish, oysters, and crabs, and were listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2009.
Winter on the Beach documents the three winter months December, January, and February on Föhr's southern beach. Every single day between 30 and 100 photos were taken, out of which a single one was selected to represent that particular day. In order to transport the beach atmosphere beyond the visual impression of the photograph, data for air and sea temperature as well as wind was recorded and is displayed as well. Background information on climate, astrophysical data, nature, and wildlife complement the daily records.
Enjoy the daily excursions on the beach as you use the book as diary, calendar book, or just as means to flee from the daily routine to an island....
