Home: Marken, Noord Holland



I took this photo in an old house on the island Marken, in North Holland. It was shut off for most of its history from mainland Holland by harsh waters until a road was built in 1957. They've managed to maintain a lot of the old traditions, and still often wear traditional clothing.

I thought of this photo as a tribute to the topic "home," which I stated I would write about this month, but could never find the time.
