        Yersterday I visited the Leica Camera Headquarters in Wetzlar, Germany. The Building Complex of which the Second half was completed this Year is quite impressive.

        The "older" half constists of a Cafe and the lets call it Visitor Center with a Photo Exibition, a Leica Shop, a little Museums where you can see every Leica ever Made and because the Factory is Right behind the Building you can even take a glimpse Into the Production where yesterday nobody was working because in Germany often Times Saturday and Sunday are off Days.

        The new Part constists of the Leica Cine, the Ernst Leitz Hotel (Ernst Leitz is the Founder of Leica) and the Building with the Bellow and the Red Dot which is a Art Museum with a Shop build in.

        Thanks for reading/watching  😉

          Some lovely shots there and a nice place. The big thing I took away from my recent visit to Berlin was the rich architectural tradition that is so obvious throughout the city.

            Let´s say we have our Moments here, in frankfurt e.g. where I believe I know most of whats going on architectural wise you can find everything from awful to amazing and tons of money driven zero fks given projects that are build to last aslong as the fianancing does.

            Youre Guys up their do much better work when it comes to keeping the quality consistantly high even down to something like your own House which as far as I know from Pictures from all over Scandinavia is quite a common way to live/build, the common way down here is ugly to say the least, the Trend at the moment is grey houses with grey windows and grey roofs because its considerd modern  ???

              I’m no expert in these things but it was the range and variety of Berlin architecture that amazed me.

              The Babylon theatre right across from the Volksbuhne in Mitte was a point in case.

                That is indeed a Gem a Building by Hans Poelzig from Pre-WW2, the Style is known as the "Neue Sachlichkeit" which is world famous under the Name Bauhaus the most famous Fella of that Era would probably be Mies van der Rohe. The "IG-Farben Haus" (an amazing building with a cruel WW2 History which is now a University) and the "Haus des Rundfunks" are more really impressive Poelzig Buildings which are still in tact and sort of open to the Public. The IG-Farben has one of the last running Pater-Noster-Elevators which are pretty intersting to use (not my Video):

                      He'll do just fine. My worry for now is that he's been constipated for the last few days, so lastnight was a bit traumatizing for him. I had to run to the grocery store with him at 10pm to pick up some Pedia-Lax just so he can poop. Lesson learned. Don't feed him junk food at the State Fair.

                        Well then what's the point of even going to the State Fair?  No weird fried things? No food on sticks?  That's just crazy talk.

                          New York State Fair last week. I couldn't get myself to order anything, just took the pic.
                          These guys fried everything.
                          Hope he's feeling better and had a great first day.

                            Crazy talk indeed. At the Fair he ate a 12" corndog, donuts, an ice cream cone and ice cream sandwich. Not saying I disagree with you but fried foods and dairy products block him up.

                                    Don't really know how this talk gets into what are you doing today, but usually a 15 minute car ride with my other half usually takes care of any constipation issues.

                                            I was in Cologne on Friday.
                                            Visiting a Concert of 'The Notwist', it was like 'A sound like a Wall'!
                                            Perhaps a little bit kooky!

                                            But Cologne is more than an architectural town! 
                                            Centuries in between, looking from left to right. 

                                            The rest of the day was a struggle with public transportation!

                                            Enjoyed every second!
