Between heaven and earth - A light in the dark

            Zwischen Himmel und Erde - Ein Licht im Dunkeln. 

Der Abend war wirklich super, zum laufen und zum Fotografieren. Warm, und auch relativ windstill. Bin nach dem Sonnenuntergang von Sankt Peter Ording gestartet und wollte mich von den Weiten inspirieren lassen. 
Milchstrasse scheint es nur in Sankt Peter Ording zu geben oder am Leuchtturm in Westerhever. Der Leuchtturm Westerheversand selbst steht auf einer Warft vor dem Ort Westerhever, und bildet den Blickfang für den Betrachter.  
Unter dem funkelnden Weiten der Milchstraße erstreckt sich ein nächtliches Panorama. Der sternenübersäte Himmel zeigt die unendlichen Weiten des Universums, während am Horizont ein Lichtstrahl des Leuchtturms die Dunkelheit durchbricht und in die Stille der Nacht eine Dynamik ausstrahlt. 
Die Dynamik wird auch im Kontrast zwischen den warmen Farben des Horizonts und der kälteren des Himmels aufgegriffen. 

Ich finde selbst das sich hier das irdische mit dem Leuchtturm und das Kosmische sehr gut trifft. In der Nacht habe ich einige Fotos aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven gemacht, die ich in den nächsten Tagen und Wochen mit Euch teilen, möchte. 

Ich bin offen für Eure Anregungen, und Kritik. Finde Milchstrasse faszinierend, aber auch sehr schwierig zu fotografieren. 

Between heaven and earth - A light in the dark. 
The evening was really great for walking and taking photos. Warm and relatively windless. I set off from Sankt Peter Ording after sunset and wanted to be inspired by the vastness. 
The Milky Way only seems to exist in Sankt Peter Ording or at the lighthouse in Westerhever. The Westerheversand lighthouse itself stands on a mound in front of the village of Westerhever and is an eye-catcher for the viewer.  
A nocturnal panorama stretches out beneath the twinkling expanse of the Milky Way. The star-studded sky shows the infinite expanse of the universe, while on the horizon a ray of light from the lighthouse breaks through the darkness and radiates a dynamic into the stillness of the night. 
The dynamic is also picked up in the contrast between the warm colors of the horizon and the colder colors of the sky. 

I myself think that the earthly with the lighthouse and the cosmic meet very well here. During the night I took some photos from different perspectives, which I would like to share with you in the coming days and weeks. 

I am open to your suggestions and criticism. I find the Milky Way fascinating, but also very difficult to photograph.
