The Public – PhotoHunt
This is what I found for PhotoHunt challenge today. The public at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin were all in position to take photos of these camouflaged but pretend soldiers. The bear mascot was also in place to smile on the cameras. They welcomed tourists to this spectacular presentation that depicted the old West and East Berlin. And it all happened at the Brandenburg Gate where the militaries stood divided to guard their own posts, making sure no one from east would cross west and west to east. But now it’s only a scene so don’t be scared and get your cameras ready when you’re in Berlin.
At the Brandenburg Gate

The woman in the middle of the guards had nothing to do with them. She was among the public who wanted to be photographed and be a part of the scene of the day. Anyone could actually come forward and pose with the performers. It might be scary for children to see men in camouflage but the bear mascot was there to lighten them up. That’s how open Berlin to the public these days. I don’t know if they do this all year round but it was summer when we witnessed this reenactment of the past.
Grab Your iPhone 4 Tonight!
Tonight is the night! iPhone 4 aficionados will definitely be in queue to grab this much awaited phone. It must be the only phone that mobile operators love to start selling at a premiere night. And people flock as early as possible till late at night like there’s nothing left of the phone the next day. That’s how charming iPhone is. Love at first night. Laughs!
Despite the news of an antenna problem, some people seem to be not affected by this and go on possessing one. It doesn’t matter, it’s an iPhone – so what others might have thought. I wonder how the first users felt about the problem and if the free case have helped solve the reception problem in a way. I wouldn’t know how I hold my phone during a call. If I am holding it the right way or the wrong way, I could’t and wouldn’t think about it. I don’t have an iPhone anyway. But if I would buy one means I should start thinking about how to hold it or calls would cut-off. I told hubby before that I wanted to have this iPhone 4. But now I’m not so sure anymore because of the antenna problem. And what would I have it for if it can’t make calls complete. My phone is working perfectly so I’ll wait for more user-experience reviews after the premiere night.
From One Place To Another
I have not taken a closer look what the pots of these huge potpourri of plants are made of but they always change places everytime I pass by this place. I call them the mobile pots and whoever moves these from one place to another must have a gigantic stature. That is, if a forklift or any kind of lift is not used. The place is big with the statue of Gustav Adolf at the centre so these pots can be everywhere around too. They were closer to the court building when I took this pic. Sometimes they’re closer to the statue.
the mobile plant pots
The last time I was in the city centre was when I went out with my friend, probably three weeks ago. We passed by this place but it slipped my mind to see where they were placed that time as we were both eager to see the wheel. Tourists flock to this place especially to take photographs of the statue of Gustav Adolf. Now it reminds me to take a photo of it too. I am always more attracted to these pots of plants than the statue. Maybe I will be interested when they move that statue from one place to another too. Lol!
