Slochter AE

In search for a new sunset location I went to Woudbloem, to the Slochter AE to be exact (near Slochteren) this evening. I met Peter at the scene at 19.30. The sun would set at 21.23 so we had a some time to explore the area.
The circumstances for a nice photo looked perfect when we arrived but the lower the sun came, the less clouds remained. The strong wind from the north destroyed every possible reflection.

This location needs clouds for a good composition. The poles alone are just not enough.
I guess I have to go there again some other time to get more out of this new location.
