A sailing boat on the IJsselmeer during sunset. This was a lovely calm and windless evening at Hindeloopen on the IJsselmeer. as the sun sets, a sailboat glides by in the distance on a my windless water surface reflecting the colours of the sunset. A photo that gives you a summery and calm feeling Ideal for a colourful but minimalist interior.
The sailboat's red sails colour beautifully against the warm background and the small waves on the water reflect a little more of the blue tones of the sky.
I wanted to make the photo as simple as possible to expose the vastness and minimalist feel.
