Photographing a bird’s eye-view of Berlin is not easy: it’s very flat and doesn’t have big city skylines. But that’s part of the capital’s charm. However, that is slowly being changed by a highrise boom. Ignoring the obvious Fernsehturm (TV Tower) option, I attempted to photograph city vistas from various locations.
