30 october 2005 - fernsehturm
one day in the fall i wanted to take pictures. given that i don't find berlin particularly picturesque, on an extended basis, for my purposes, i decided to take one part which i found picturesque, and photograph it to death. hopefully i would get some interesting pictures that way. and it came to pass.
the fernsehturm means, literally, the t.v. tower. i presume the antennas on it are used to send t.v. programs. i started by walking up to it in the afternoon, and taking the usual shots, including some of the usual deviations. i even went up close and got some shots of the base of it. on some of the shots, i tried to play with the angle of the picture. on one shot, i took some sideways hanging branches, and pretended they were the tips of the tree, getting a horizontal tower. i also compared the tower to the lamps at the base, an obvious comparison.
