Photographer's Note
For many years at Scheveningen was a contest of Sandsculptures. Usualy about 10 different sculptures were build by different international teams. This year the concept was changed and they build only ONE castle but much bigger. This photo shows a bit of the castle of this year. The construction is about 4 or 5 meters high. Realy impressive. At the WS you can see the all construction

Hello Kikks, in the thumbnail and even in the larger version it looks like a real one with the blue sky at the background. In the Algarve region of Portugal there's such a sandsculpure activity every year. In the Netherlands the weather could be rainy even in the summer. I hope those castles last long:)
Best regards, Tolga

Ciao dear Kik,
5 meters high? Unbelievable! To make a sculpture of sand as this needs to be good sculptors but also good architects. To make a photo as this needs to be instead excellent photographers, as you have shown to be. Congratulations!
Ciao, have a nice Sunday!

Goedenavond Kik and thanks for your kind words.
That's quite a piece of art looking majestic over the cloudy sky!
I have the impression of a castle built in Morocco desert with adobe materials!
You pay a fine tribute to the artists who created it; too bad it's built fleetingly!
Tot ziens.
Robert
