Photography Tips
The Brandenburger Tor/Gate is Berlin is probably the most crowded one in Berlin and as such the most important tip is to get here on Sunday morning as early as 7 or 8 am. Bring along a tripod and nd filters for long exposure. This shot was taken with a 16-35mm at 18mm. There will be photographers but they will be moving around so patience is a virtue but you will eventually get the place clean of people.
