Post modernism.
... later that night.
Throwback Dec 8, 2012. What seems to have been a frosty winter morning. The building on the right, socialist modernism in slow decay, back then only contained a bunch of smaller stores, a walk-in laundry service and a carpenter workshop. And disappeared a couple of years later, making room for a discounter superstore and parking lots. Time passes, and structures change, not necessarily for the better.
Later that day later that year.
An odd kind of carnival.
Old balconies, fresh snow.
Watching in silence.
Throwback Dec 4, 2014. On the road, Berlin. Lunch break during a business trip. Somewhere near Treptower Park I guess. Poor quality again compared to most of todays cameras and shots; back then again it was more "instant" point-shoot-send. And usually immediately ended up in shorter communications with locals asking or recommending things. This strange kind of interaction was unique to "early" Instagram days and seems missing on virtually any other network ever since.
