This is a 60-year old postcard of the Scheveningen lighthouse. The postcard is colorized manually. This is a striking night view in black and white of the Brandaris Lighthouse on the wadden island of Terschelling. It was taken by Frans in 1980. Since there was hardly any wind, the lights from the tower and the village create a beautiful reflection.
All wadden islands are, in a way, 'walking to the east'.
Terschelling island is one of the wadden or coastal islands and its lighthouse is named 'Brandaris'. The first Brandaris-tower was built in 1323 as a landmark, for ships sailing to Amsterdam. The ships had to navigate a narrow seagate between the islands of Vlieland and Terschelling. The sea between Terschelling and the continent is the Waddenzee. During high tide the Waddenzee completely fills with water.
