FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS BERLIN
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).

Mit einem Feuerwerk an Illuminationen und Veranstaltungen verwandelte das FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS™ auch 2007 wieder die deutsche Hauptstadt zwei Wochen lang in eine einzigartige Glitzermetropole. Weltberühmte historische Wahrzeichen und Orte Berlins, wie das Brandenburger Tor, der Funkturm, der Berliner Dom und der Fernsehturm, wurden spektakulär mit Licht, Events, Projektionen und Feuerwerk in Szene gesetzt.
