What's inside? Photo

Photographer’s Note

Potsdamer Platz, Berlin.
If you push your head into the empty coats of these headless umbrella people, you can view a video presentation about Berlin's hisory and architecture.
well, it was intersting, but I was more intersted in the outside.

BTW, the huge red sign at the back is an advertisment for the world cup.

Interesting to see this alternate take of the umbrella statue, Itzik. Good candid street scene where the guy curiously peeking inside makes a fun subject. The tilt is okay on this one, too.

I recognize the red signs in the back; I was at the public viewing of the France vs Switzerland match in Stuttgart today, and of course they have the same posters there.

The one at the right says "Statistisch gesehen wird Deutschland in Deutschland immer Weltmeister" - in English, "Statistically viewed, Germany always wins the worldcup when it is held in Germany". Of course, that happened only once so far, in 1974.

I think it became funny because of the curiosity of the man looking inside. A nice briht nd sharp photo.

Priceless amusing street scene. Not sure about the wide view wof the background detail, but opportunist shot.

Very intriguing image, Yitzhak. I like this puzzling moment captured. The note is very informative, but I think the image also stands on its own in terms of showing a curious human being!
