Description Potsdamer Platz, Berlin

There's a color version available as well, but b/w is much more appealing here in my opinion.

b/w conversion, curves adjusted

Wow, looks like a sharpened blade! (Even though it's more wedge-shaped ;]) I agree about BW being much stronger. Cool zigzag going on with that contrail!

You're right about the blade-shape. Interesting building also in real.

Well there might be much truth in your words, since in the early days of mankind people started to "enhance" their shelters with decorative details.

You are quite right about the strength and appeal of the B/W version. It has a strong composition and a lovely tonal sky, both of which are more apparent in this version. Good work.

No architect at all though architecture is my favorite kind of motif.
