Hello explorers,
This looks like a bit of an abandoned empty building, but it is the central staircase of photografiska in Berlin. A photo museum housed in an old squatters' stronghold.
When the organisation of the photo museum bought the building, they wanted to keep it as original as possible. They didn't want a designer building or a sleek painted museum. They wanted to show their respect for the heritage and the history of if the building.
It starts at the botom of the stairs. There is a museum shop and a restaurant but this immediately caught my attention.
It looked like a big mess, but it worked perfectly with the concrete and graffiti.
It's a beauty of a staircase. I really was enjoing myself when I took the pictures here. I continuously was looking for the best angle fot the picture, waiti g for a persin walking at thecright wpot.
I also tried to capture the visitors of the museum. It shows you a bit more of how big the stairs really are. It gives you a nice comparison with an object, the human, wete you can relate to.
This location was a good location to challenge myself a bit more. I need to go a bit deeper into the details of the things that I take pictures of. I always tend to zoom out too far, which gives you a too-wide image that actually contains a lot of information.
I took a couple of pictures of the different corridors that leeds to the exhibition rooms.
I loved this door. The light behind it was very nice. The people who got into the room made a nice silhouet behind it. It gave a little of a spooky feeling of the place.
I will make a post about the exhibition later. And if you have a post about a museum visit, I am very curious about that. Show me in the comments your museum post.
Have a nice weekend, you all!
