Photo Included In Schmap Berlin Guide

I just got word from those wonderful people at Schmap that one of my photos has been included in their Schmap Berlin Guide. I originally got word through flickr about my shortlisting, and was rather chuffed. You can see the picture along with their Berlin write-up here.

Or, here’s the original picture if you are opposed to clicking on the link above :)

Shortlisted For The February Schmap Berlin Guide

Yesterday I got word from Schmap that one of my images on flickr had been shortlisted for inclusion into the February edition of the Schmap Berlin Guide – nice surprise :) The photo in question was taken with my S9600 and what seems like oh so long ago, but the only good quality version I have unfortunately is of the flickr upload – I’ll have to locate the RAW original. As soon as I hear any updates I’ll be sure to shout it to the world!

In other non-important news I’ve started doing some time lapse photography – got to branch out a little. The first 47 seconds of my first video have taken 1150 images and I’d like to get up to at least 3 minutes so there’s still plenty of work to do! I’ll be posting it here when it’s finished…

Photos From Berlin

Third in the series of my random city photo postings is from Berlin! – dating back to March 2008. I seriously just had to get away from Ireland for a few days as college was getting crazy, so when I heard the college German Society were planning a cheap trip away I jumped immediately on board (despite the fact I knew exactly zero people there). Now I’m not one to turn my nose up at a free meal – the holiday and the people were fantastic, but in hindsight we didn’t pick exceptionally well timed dates to travel – the weather was also great but the S-Bahn and bus systems were on strike! For the single week that we were there for! To rub salt into the wounds there was an S-Bahn station directly outside our hostel and the nearest U-Bahn was a nearly 30 minute walk away:( We hung out mostly near the Reichstage and passed the River Spree when getting from out hostel to the U-Bah station. I you go to Berlin make sure to check out the Hauptbahnhof (Main Train Station) – it’s like a mini town! Other places to check out are any KDV (huge shopping centres; someone correct me please if that abbreviation is wrong) and also the fanstatic backery Kamps. Now on to the photos – in no particular order…
