A bright day in October at the sea front...
Take a deep breath ... and then dive again into the problems of the world!

A picture of river Elbe estuary into the North Sea at Cuxhaven (coordinates 53° 52′ N, 8° 42′ O).

It was a sunny and windy (Bft. 3 - 4) day, that afternoon in October. The sky was blue, covered with just a few white clouds.

At that point the Elbe is about 20 to 30 km wide. On the opposite shore is Schleswig.Holstein, with really many wind turbines, delivering 20% of our energy needs.

Here is a heavy traffic sea lane, so there are placed sea buoys. On the left side of the picture is a red portside buoy, behind it a yellow shoal buoy. On the right side of the picture is a green starboard buoy. The red and green buoys mark the ship´s fairway.
