The German Reichstag in Berlin is after the fall of the berlin wall again the seat of the german Goverment. The building was build in 1894 burned in 1933, wrapped in by Christo in 1995, rebuild in 1999. there was open air music and theather on the grass before it (david bowie, genesis , michael jackson, and pink floyds the wall) the concerts where heard also in the east part of berlin, wich caused many anger in the former ddr. the place before the reichstag was closed by a fence and a building ground so the picture must be taken from the side in januar 2002. gretings from berlin. peter
This is an excellent photo. The angle of the photo is also interesting. The dome in the back of the building lends a stangeness to the photo that makes for good viewing. The hurdles in the front of the photo, although at first distracting, completes the image in that it speaks of the "unapproacabilty" of the building!!
