Unheimlich

Unheimlich is a untranslatable German word for an oppressive, uncomfortable, creepy and ominous feeling. An indescribable strangeness. 

I wandered around and photographed in De Klijte at nightfall, the village where I grew up and where I still live. It was fascinating to see this village in another way. I looked around. And I got an ominous feeling at certain places. There was something threatening. The places seemed to waiting for a sinister and dark event.
