WHEN I LEAVE BERLIN
This selection of images in and
around the city are reasons to stay.
Brandenburger Tor, Berlin
Festival Of Lights
Solar Clock - Dreilinden
Check Point Bravo
Check Point Bravo
Like Superman -
Dreilinden Berlin
Check Point Bravo
Dreilinden #4 Solar Clock -
the camera positioning to get this composition was a challenge.
Lots of pp but as Spike Milligan said 'The boring truth or an interesting lie?'.
Check Point Bravo
Dreilinden Clock #3 -
a desire to capture these clocks from every angle - this one head on
Funkturm Charlottenburg
Funkturm Sunset -
One day I'll get it right
Karlshorst
KGB #1 -
Learning how to use a Tilt & Shift at the former KGB headquarters in Berlin
FofL. Berlin
The Mexican Embassy -
Festival of Lights in Berlin; lots of tungsten light - adjust white balance to suit
ICC, Berlin
ICC Berlin -
An older image with new post-processing. The giant air vents dominate the image but I like the window geometry which remind of Hannibal Lector's facemask. My first outing with a 14-24mm.
Vockerode
Kraftwerk Wheel -
The wheel is a stage prop remaining from a production of the Marquis de Sade which was held here. Tried every angle with a Nikon T&S.
Coswig Cement
Coswig #1 -
A disused chemical works; the high vantage point was a challenge to capture the scale of the building.
Use of textures in pp add tones to the bland features
Bärenquelle Brauerei
Beer Labels On the Floor
Reichstag, Berlin
Tusk -
The Berlin Reichstag at night - named Tusk because of the form of the walkway
I used this image as the main backdrop for this site - sprinkled with a few Drelinden clocks…
and those sublime people at 1x.com actually liked it too..!
Berlin Teufelsberg
Teufelsberg and the Listening Station, Berlin.
