The mudflats in the picture

Paesens - Moddergat. Even in Dutch it is a fascinating name. For a place at the end of the world, where the Netherlands tumbles into the sea.

Paesens-Moddergat - The wind is blowing hard in the fisherman’s village. The small houses are blindfolded by the dyke that separates them from the sea. It must be strange to be a fisherman living beside a sea you can’t see.
