Album: Berlin
350+ Berlin pictures: Mitte, Kreuzberg, Prenzlauer Berg, Berlin by Night, Winter in Berlin – a collection of photos I took over the years, recently mostly on my iPhone. I still have some hundreds of Berlin pictures in my archives – some taken with a digital SLR camera, some analog pictures, even some Lomos from the 90s. So there will be more pictures coming up in the future, bit by bit, whenever I find the time.
