In the Groningen landscape, the village of Garmerwolde lies hushed under a blanket of morning mist. The church's iconic spire and a distinctive outbuilding rise just visibly above the mist, while the first colours of dawn fill the air with soft pastel tones. Garmerwolde's Romano-Gothic church with freestanding tower dates back to around 1250.
The silence is palpable in this scene - as if the world is in breathless calm for a moment before the day begins. The dense fog dampens every shape and movement, leaving only contours and creating a sense of timelessness.
A moment of pure minimalism and serenity, captured in the right light.
