I went back to 'Niehove' a small village in the north of The Netherlands, to make this B & W shot for the current contest


The church in centre of the village

An artificial dwelling hill (known as Terp, Wierde,) is a mound, created to provide safe ground during high tide and river floods. These hills occur in the coastal parts of the Netherlands (in the provinces of Zeeland, Friesland and Groningen), in southern part of Denmark and in Germany where, before dikes were made, tides interfered with daily life
