Beach scenery after the pandemic lock-down at Sylt/Kampen, Germany. Not only the people and their proximity to each other have suffered - the beach as well - the horrendous storms have washed away the beach - which is under reconstruction by ships pumping large amounts of sand through pipelines to the shore. A net-new normal creating a surrealistic scenery of the new reality.
