Potsdam looks nothing like the urban Berlin. The old city was made of baroque houses only which was so beautiful, and the castles and the park of sanssouci were enchanting.
The weather was amazing: warm but fresh, bright but cloudy. If only all summer was like that!
I finally managed to take some photos after a very long brake from photography due to lack of time. I was so happy to be inspired from everything, I´ve missed this feeling so much!
I´ve realized that I am greatly inspired by old architecture and the most cheesy church and garden monuments (and cemetery monuments of course). Something in the way they turn out on camera is just so magical, and the statues as if coming to life and shining with so much personality! I can take pictures of statues forever...
This is my most favorite picture taken that day! |
We were walking all day and eventually got tired, and just then we saw another piece of cathedral ruins not far away from where we were, but it was sunset already (I dislike taking pictures in the sunset sun) and we were exhausted so we have decided to come back to Potsdam in October again when Boris´ parents would come to visit. I am sure they would love to see it and I would be eager on taking pictures of those unexplored ruins.

Seems like a nice getaway from a bustling city. I love doing that too from time to time...though there aren't a lot of old cities near new york. Love the photos (especially the first one!)
ReplyDeleteI want to visit Leipzig which is an hour away from Berlin, but then we would have to pay extra for a train. maybe one day.
DeleteThe first photography! Perfect! :)
ReplyDeletethank you, glad it turned out good!
DeleteI know what you mean about taking photos of statues <3. I recall the ones in Park Sanssouci being especially photogenic.
ReplyDeleteit´s exciting to hear that you liked them as well :)
