The
site is in German and English
Fancy some real night photography, then this
article in English and German may be just right for
you. I have received this interesting info from my
brother Bernd in Berlin, Germany.
Berlin lights up during the month of October, the
next light show is in 2008, if it happens and you
travel in Europe why dont you swing by Berlin, watch
the show and if you feel up to it try your skills on
some real night photography. There is also a photo
competition, check out the website for all the
details, see the provided links. or click on the
image above, the site in in English and German.
Thanks a lot Bernd for sharing this with us, cool
shots.

The Festival
Also this year, the FESTIVAL
OF LIGHTS™
turned Berlin into a sparkling metropolis with a
firework of illuminations and events for two weeks
from 16 to 28 October. World-famous historical
landmarks and spots in Berlin, e.g. the Brandenburg
Gate, the TV or radio tower, was staged impressively
by means of light, events, projections and fireworks.
Complementary to the festival there were numerous
cultural events dealing with the subject “light”.
The City Foundation Berlin, the Union Investment Real
Estate AG, the light artist Andreas Boehlke and the
festival director Birgit Zander with her agency
Zander & Partner Event-Marketing are the
initiators and organisers of the festival.
The lights of the festival are extinct for this year,
but next year they will enchant Berlin again in the
last weeks of October (from 14 to 26 October).
Visit Berlin! Enjoy this unique festival!
Here you can find the best hotels and low priced
rooms.
