Who will take the best wind photo?

Take part in the photo competition by submitting your wind-themed photo from the Eemsdelta. Think of your favourite spot in (or out of) the wind, a fun experience in the wind, or your most beautiful wind-swept landscape.

The photo competition is now closed.

Would you prefer to be blown away by the culture of Appingedam? Do you like to go with the flow through rural Loppersum? Or would you rather get a proper breath of fresh air on the beach at Delfzijl? Then share your photo and be in with a chance of winning the ‘Fresh WIND’ package, consisting of an overnight stay, dinner and a hamper of local produce for two people.

Every week, a selection of the photos submitted will be featured on this page.

The winners of the photo competition

Thea Kerstholt (Wehe den Hoorn) is the winner of the photo competition for the‘24 Hours of Wind in the Eemsdelta’ campaign. Thea has managed to capture the theme – Eemsdelta.Wind.Always – superbly in a single photograph. During Storm Corrie, which swept across our country earlier this year, Thea found the balance to withstand the wind whilst capturing the horizon. Her prize is a complete ‘24 Hours in the Eemsdelta’ package: dinner at de Basiliek (Appingedam), an overnight stay at the Eemshotel, the ‘Local Groningen’ route and a hamper of local produce.

Kees Komdeur (Roden) has won second prize with his photograph of the footbridge by the beach in Delfzijl at sunrise. Kees has won four free tickets for a performance of his choice at theater de Molenberg Delfzijl.

The beautiful tourist photograph of the bicycle leaning against the fence by the church in Eenum is by Astrid Bosker (Winsum). She wins third prize: an introduction to witchcraft at the ‘Wikster van het Wad’ in Bierum

All prices have been made available free of charge by the businesses involved.
