Playing around with the fisheye lens on the corner of Paul-Lincke-Ufer and Forster Strasse.

Right now, the Deutsches Technikmuseum is closed because of the Coronavirus Pandemic, but back in December 2017 there was a big Christmas Tree in the lobby.

The famous corner of Paul-Lincke-Ufer and Forster Strasse looks really different in a fisheye shot!

In the entrance hall of the German Museum of Technology a Cessna is hanging from the roof – it’s the very one that was flown by Matthias Rust from Germany to Moscow to make a landing on the Red Square. The plane has only been in the lobby since 2009.

I finally made it out for a little walk today along the Landwehrkanal and only used the new 8mm fisheye lens to take some very different looking photos of Kreuzberg.

The entrance to Berlin’s Deutsches Technikmuseum, which used to be named Museum für Verkehr und Technik before the big expansion that started in 1999. The entrance is not actually under the Rosinenbomber of the new building but somewhat unconspicuously on the side at the Trebbiner Strasse 9 around the corner.

When I first visited Berlin again in 2017 after almost 30 years, of course I had to visit one of my favourite childhood places again: the German Museum of Technology, or Deutsches Technikmuseum, which had grown a lot since the 1980s. The highlight was always and always will be its impressive train collection, but today it has many other amazing exhibitions. It begins outside with the original Rosinenbomber, one of the Douglas C-47 of the Berliner Luftbrücke of the late 1940s, suspended on the roof of the new part of the museum that was opened relatively recently in the early 2000s.

I successfully managed to sneak back into Berlin Kreuzberg yesterday after an uncrowded safe train ride! Unfortunately the weather isn’t very good and this was the only bit brief of sunshine we had. There will probably be more photos in a couple of days, but until then I still have some from the archives which I will start posting tomorrow as a Christmas special!

This is the last photo from Berlin for now – sadly I haven’t been able to go back since January due to Corona, but I hope some Christmas travel will be possible. But for now we go back to my hometown starting tomorrow!

The former Salatgarten, now La Maison, the best Boulangerie in Kreuzberg… in their early incarnation in January!
