The coast - dividing line and habitat

In an endless interplay of water and land, coastal regions form the most diverse landscapes on earth. We find fine sandy or coarse pebble beaches in a wide variety of colours as well as hard rocky coasts, high cliffs or a varied mixture of these.

At the transition from sea to land, the typical coastal weather phenomena and the unusual lighting conditions are particularly interesting. While on land the lighting normally comes from above, the reflective water surfaces can create other unusual lighting conditions.

The coastal habitat also provides us with its own flora and fauna. We encounter a wide variety of creatures, each of which has a specific relationship with the sea, but must not lose contact with the solid ground.

With this exhibition, we, the photographers of the Naturfototreff Eschmar, are once again showing our personal, subjective view of our photographic theme (summarised as a group view).
