Images from Egypt

Egypt is an extremly interesting country for Photographers, the atmosphere on the Nile is very special, impressive sunsets, raw nature, exciting markets with a variety of colors and themes. I have been two times in Egypt, the first time I took slides with my old Niko FE2 and the last time in 2008, with the D200.

Imaging from Berlin, Germany


Berlin - Images by Alex Timaios

I had the opportunity to take some images of Berlin. The weather was miserabily, so I could only take some pictures at night and only for a short period of time (unfortunately it was so cold that the the battery of my D200 was depleted very soon) Berlin looks great at xmas time and I will definitely visit this interesting city again. You will see in the slideshow the Brandenburger Portal, the majestic cathedral and the Reichstags Building

the holocaust memorial in Berlin
The memorial remembering the holocaust is an impressive place. It is difficult to say if the memorial is beautiful, it is probably not the goal of the massive concret blocks. It reflects the incredible number of deaths and suffering. cold, empty, senseless.
