Hamburg & Berlin

I recently spent a long weekend in Hamburg for a friend's 30th. I'm pleased with how the night shots of the fair turned out considering it was raining and my first attempt! We also spent a day and night in Berlin. This outing did not get off to a good start when we were met from the train by the police and escorted to the police station for not having ID (thanks to a jobsworth railway official!) but the city certainly has an interesting history.


Hamburg Harbour


The "Dom" fair. Called the Dom as it takes place on the site of an old church. This is also the wasteground where the famous Hamburg photo session of the Beatles took place, trivia fans




The Wall. The first piece of graffiti I agree with (AND it's spelt correctly)

Oh No! More Photos!
