On a recent trip over to Germany to visit family, we decided pretty much last-minute to drive north to the beach community island of Norderney. Pulling 150-160kph on the Autobahn and bit over three hours - it was time to jump into the 18º North Sea and feel the sand between my toes!
I used the M9 and Zeiss Sonnar T* 1,5/50 ZM almost exclusively, but also used the Voigtländer 35mm f/2.5 Color Skopar and Leica Elmarit-M 90mm f/2.8 lenses a bit.
Norderney is one of the seven populated East Frisian Islands off the North Sea coast of Germany. The island is 14 km long and about 2.5 km wide, having a total area of about 26.3 square kilometres (10.2 sq mi) and is therefore Germany's tenth largest island. Norderney's population amounts to about 6,200 people. On the northern side of the island lies a 14 km long sandy beach. The neighbouring island to the east is Baltrum, which lies about 800m (half a mile) away. To the west is the island of Juist, about 3 km away.M9, Leica Elmarit-M 90mm f/2.8:
