This enchanting maritime landscape shot was created using long exposure. The photo was taken with the Nikon D90 on 26 August 2016 in the late, summer evening hours on Henne Beach on the Danish North Sea in Jutland.
Jutland (Danish: Jylland, adjective: "jütisch" or "jütländisch", Danish: jysk) is commonly understood to be the western part of Denmark, which is located on the Kimbrian Peninsula and stretches from the German-Danish border to the Grenen headland north of Skagen. This means that the entire Danish mainland is made up of Jutland, while the other parts of Denmark are made up of islands.
In Danish Jutland, the landscape of Schleswig-Holstein continues northwards, with marshes on the North Sea coast in the west, a terminal moraine ridge (Geest) in the centre and loamy hill country consisting of the ground moraines of the Ice Age in the east. The coastal strips in the north-eastern half are comparatively young, as Jutland still rises 10 mm per year due to the post-glacial land uplift along a diagonal and sinks in the south-west.
To the north of Esbjerg, there is a levelling coast with high sand dunes in the west. The Limfjord cuts through Jutland in an east-westerly direction. The watershed of the Jutland Ridge runs through the centre of Jutland in a north-south direction, starting at Dollerup and continuing over the Hütten Hills to Holstein. The main north-south traffic route, the Ox Road (Danish: Hærvejen), probably formed along this ridge as early as the Stone Age.
The highest elevation in Jutland (and at 170.86 metres above sea level also the highest elevation in Denmark) is Møllehøj in the immediate vicinity of Ejer Bavnehøj and not far from Yding Skovhøj, all of which are located in the Ejer Bjerge mountain range between Skanderborg and Horsens.

"The photographic image process represents my personal work and creation area. This means dealing with image worlds, politics, human needs and sensitivities. The camera expands my scope to meet that other reality. Photography makes me happy, creates joy, closes boundaries, opens new doors, widens horizons. The camera teaches me to see, to sharpen the view, to capture moments, to perceive fleeting moments that are not visible to others. I am a creative person, a picture-maker, who draws on herself, does not copy a lot and develops her own imagery. So I move between the poles, reach different fixed points, look behind the scenes. Out of the thousandfold existing I manage to bring out something unique, unique moments of the picture."
