A Dark Cross - a photo on Flickriver

A Dark Cross

            It’s quite a while ago already that I uploaded some images from the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin. The last time my approach was very different. Anyway I had this shot in my mind for a very very long time! But I never went out and did it… even though I’m living very close by… But now I’m so happy that I finally went out and got the shot that I was waiting for ;)

This place is about what happened to the jews during the holocaust. It’s about what the Nazis which were christians did to the jews in Europe… It wasn’t my intension but this image shows a dark cross under a bright sky in the middle of the Holocaust Memorial. This place is in the heart of Berlin from where the Nazis ruled over Germany and quite a lot of Europe… So there is (unintentionally) a very strange story in this image. What do you think?

(I want to distance myself from any anti-Semitic or any racist remarks! Any similarities to symbols were not my intension. Please see it as a piece of art and not as any political statement!)
