Iron Curtain

Here are a few images from a project I've spent the last couple years working on about the Iron Curtain in Berlin. I'm glad to finally be at a point to show images but there is still a lot of historical research I'm pouring through before I can proceed further.

HDR?

Nope. Just plain old fashioned digital capture with a polarizing filter.

...also I burned the sky on the photo of the building (Reichstag) and used a green filter in the black and white conversion.

Looking good Kelly, I am excited to see the finished project. You said you were thinking about a book right?
The third image doesn't do much for me though.

Thanks Zak, I can appreciate that comment when you see these four together. The 3rd image doesn't really seem to fit. Hopefully it will make more sense in a book. It's razor wire on top of a wall of the former East German prison.

Titles are important for this series, especially for those of us who have little background knowledge on the wall and its impact on the surroundings.
