 This is an image of the actual Berlin Wall. Six segments of the wall are on display at Freedom Park in Arlington, VA.

Shot through the gates after the park closed. It was very dark. No Flash. I just used a 30 second exposure and it exposed.

I love the images you've captured on this wall. I get the feeling this was not the real wall, but a representation of that wall. Wonderful image that doesn't quite capture the year for me. 6

Powerful topic to select: phew. Love the colours and the selected graphics...just me, but I would have liked some humanness in this..a child staring up at the images, or an old person in it...? We have a slab of the wall in our neck of the woods too..it doesn't have as much spray paint on it.

I like the idea, but I think you're image is a bit too busy.
