Photographer's Note
This is one of the photos which I have prepared for TrekEarth many years ago but decided not to post it since the composition was suboptimal. I suppose I decreased my standards recently or more precisely: it is now more important what I show than how I do it.
Trip to Helgoland was quite an adventure for me especially since we had a fantastic weather and everything was so colourful!. It was my first trip where I could see remote islands with thousands of bird colonies. I have showed a more popular scene from this island HERE already.
Although I had a German friend whose first name was Helgo, I thing the name of the island originates from Heilige Land (German for Holy Land).

Hello Mariusz,
I would really love to visit Helgoland one day and this photo shows why. What a beautiful view of the steep, red cliffs and the lighthouse and the tower give the impression that there is a charming village on the other side of the island too. The light was wonderful indeed.

Czesc Mariusz,
Nieznany mi kawalek Niemiec, a bardzo urokliwy. Imponujący widok na klify, pogoda i warunki faktycznie dopisały. Atrakcyjna kolorystyka i dobry kadr
pozdrawiam

Hello Mariusz,
The weather indeed looks very beautiful making the reddish cliffs contrast strong with the sky and the sea.
The island seems quite deserted.
Very pretty cloud lines in the sky.
I've heard of the female name Helga but never of Helgo.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Mariusz,
The wild scenery looks beautiful, I have no idea why depicted it as suboptimal to post: Red roks colors and the contrast to sea is marvelous, light was OK and maybe sturated one notch too far - but this thisngs happenes, and there would be no reason to show only if it had benn "immaculate-photo". We always try and miss. Good that you had posted anyway.
Best regards,
Ike

Hello Mauriusz,
The composition is very good despite your misgivings. It has a pleasing balance to it with these contrasting warm/cool colour palettes. Ideal exposure and superb rendering of the textural detail in the rich red rocks.

Hello Mariusz
Interesting consideration about this picture that was long time waiting to become urgent enough to post. I also do have a map with pictures like this and now and then I decide to use one. For some undefined reason they get a new actual judgement. It is like the painter Karel Appel said about his work. At last I’m looking at it until it is finished.
Have a nice day
Groet Rob

Witaj Mariusz,
nice the view as the presentation of the place with the reddish rocks to dominating the scene.The antennas on the edge of the rock and the blue sky make the image more attractive.

Bonsoir, cher Mariusz,
Cette image n'a rien perdu de sa beauté avec ces falaises rouges et son aspect sauvage faisant face à l'océan.
L'image est de qualité.
Amitiés.

Hello, Mariusz!
The view of these red cliffs by the seaside is beautiful, making a great contrast with the sea and the sky! The antenna is a perfect focal point here, and the sky is beautiful! Wonderful place and composition!

Hi, Mariusz.
Sensational panoramic of these cliffs, which attract attention for this reddish color of them, ideal contrast with the blue of the sea, the sky also blue has a few white clouds very pictorial.
A magnificent color that gives much chromatic richness to the image.
Very good lighting management and very good sharpness.
Well done. I like it.
I wish you a nice week.
Best Regards.
Luis.

cześć Mariusz, Dla mnie zawsze bardziej istotne jest, żeby zdjęcie było ciekawe niż perfekcyjnie wykonane. Temu zresztą nic nie można zarzucić, chociaż uważasz za suboptymalne. Ciekawe czerwone klify, szkoda tylko, ze ta latarnia morska taka malutka. Z lewej jest jeszcze jakaś szpiczasta wieża, pewnie kościoła. super ostrość.
Pozdrawiam Małgorzata

Dear Mariusz
Wow that wispy blue sky is just magic and perfectly offsets the dramatic textures of the rocks. They are a beautiful and nice and sharp.
Warmest wishes, have a great day

Hallo Mariusz,
Not what I would have expected from the North Sea coast of Germany. Looks more like the south of France around the Mediterranean. Wonderful warm cold color contrasts. Tfs!

Hi Mariusz
I knew something was strange, i had to look at your MAP to see exactly where in Germany this was taken...certainly doesn't look like the usual German photo :)
is that a lighthouse out there? I'll have to check and see how many other people have posted from here, i get the feeling not too many.
Personally, i've never even heard of this place before.
the clouds are awesome, streaking across the sky, and the contrasting red stone works well with all that blue.
glad you posted it
cheers

Ciao Mariusz
la conformazione rocciosa è molto particolare, il colore rosso è venato di bianco e questo mi piace.
Bello anche il cielo.
Saluti
