[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This shot was taken from the top of the TV Tower (Fernsehturm) on Alexanderplatz, Berlin.
The enormous tower can be seen from virtually everywhere in Berlin, and actually, it’s a very good navigation mark. It was built in 1969, and is 365 meters high. Apart from fulfilling the former GDR’s technical need for a separate broadcasting system, it became an architectural and political symbol.
The tower contains a concrete shaft, a steel cladded metal sphere, and a TV antenna. In the sphere, you can find a viewing platform (203 meters above the ground), a revolving restaurant and a souvenir shop.

Hello Tsilla

You are very high in your tower. I also posted a photo from NZ's Sky Tower and I'm only standing at 189 metres on the viewing platform.

The shadow looks good, and I like how we can follow the road alongside it.

a great shot of the city. like the shadow, it basically gives away your POV. details and texture are great.
well done, TFS.
