BERLIN

[JONIE]

Since my GXR still is in repair I find time to attend to my "old" GRD and to look into older records. I found some pictures of 2006 during a trip to Berlin.
Hope they are a bit interesting....

Cheers,
JONIE

Fantastic Jochen! The first photo is my favorite. love the refection of the clouds in the windows!

It's a long time since I was in Berlin: 1989.
Here is one photo from my visit then:

Great photos, Jochen!
Interesting -- I was in Berlin in 2006, too (in the beginning of October) -- after many, many years (mid Seventies...).
I am sad to read that your GXR its still in repair. Hopefully, it will return soon!
Best regards, Gerd

Jochen, great set of pictures. The first and the third are my favorites. In any case they are all beautiful.
Genster, nice picture also. The checkpoint was still working at that time, isn't it?

Very nice work, I like #3 a lot. Nice graphic, it would look good on a wall print!
The "New Central Station of Berlin" looks like city of the future.

Thank you Genster!

Thank you to all of you for your friendly responses !

@ Genster: it seems that your shot of Checkpoint Charly was taken only a few weeks before the wall was broken by peaceful revolution of the citizen of East Germany. We can see Checkpoint Charly nowadays in a picture of the November Contest in this forum !
Interesting comparison.
Thank you for your shot, Genster.

Cheers,
Jochen

Thank you for your shot, Genster.
