Description The Monument to the Murdered Jews of Europe, Berlin.


“The one who does not remember history is bound to live through it again.” George Santayana





This is the last photo in this series that I'll submit here (for at least a while). I hope that at least one of the photos has made you think or reflect on our (the humankind's) history and even at events in our times.

Upea kuva! Monumentin takaa näkyvä puu jotenkin hämää, mutta eipä tuo juuri haittaa muuten näin hienosti sommitellussa otoksessa..

Kiitoksia paljon, myös ista! Esteettisesti puu kyllä hämää mutta toisaalta sillä on myös symbooliarvoa (ainakin minulle). Harmi vain etteivät ne yhdisty paremmin..

Thank you!(:

It indeed feels strange that it happened, and what feels even more strange is that the holocaust isn't any exception in history... there are hundreds of events similar to the holocaust, and some have even taken place during our own lifetime...
