This is our entry for the LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #059 in the The World of XPILAR Community.
๐๐๐
It's a picture that Alessandro took in a little village called NORDEN. It simply means "North" in German. It is a town in the district of Aurich, in Lower Saxony, Germany. The quiet place is situated on the North Sea shore, in East Frisia. It's very close to the border with the Netherlands and there are certainly more sheep than people.
๐๐๐
You can best visit the area by bike. You won't have access to the embankment by car. The area is completely flat so you won't have to go through the trouble of fighting your way up the hills. It's a very peaceful corner of Germany --- and frankly only frequented by Germans. It's surely an unusual place to travel to if you come from another part of the world. That's why it might be even more valuable to get a glimpse into this plain north German coastal zone through this Photography contest.

By the way, behind these very sheep, there is the North Sea with its strong ebb and flow. Depending on the moment when you visit the dike, you might see the waves breaking at the shore or you might simply see the mud. If you're keen on seeing the Sea, you should check the timings of the tide before you jump on your bike and go there.
We are looking forward to taking a look at all the magnificent photos that you all will share with the #Steemit Community in this contest!
Kind wishes,
