Israel Part Four (Colour) – Jerusalem

February 25, 2020 by 53weeks

If don’t do this everyday then you make mistakes. The girl in the gallery is a young Israeli soldier, I was so nervous that I made a mess of the camera settings and basically forgot everything I know about photography so the shot wasn’t as good as I hoped for. Leica M9; Summilux 50; Summicron 35; Elmar 21; VSCO

Week 16 – Stalin’s Legacy

May 7, 2012 by 53weeks

It was rather fitting that I should find myself in this part of Berlin on this day, May the 1st of course being international labour day. It was here on the 17th of June 1953 that the workers of the newly formed GDR started their uprising against the fledgling socialist regime, primarily due to the increase of work quotas. The Soviets were called in and the “counter-revolution” was quashed with an official loss of 125 lives. From then on this […]

Week 4 – A Blast from the Past

January 31, 2011 by 53weeks

Whilst the infrastructure, amenities and general standard of living begin to improve, and the rents increase, it is easy to forget that the district has a very special past. After the unconditional surrender was signed by Field Marshall Wilhelm Keitel on the 8th of April 1945 in Karlshorst, the war in Europe came to a close. On the 10th of November […]
