Here is another from Haus der Offiziere. ZF.2 28/[email protected]. I love this lens and its gentle rendering of out of focus backgrounds.

Carsten, I like this one and also the one with the empty swimming pool. Nice work with the 28/2.

Thanks Joakim. I like this lens very much, it has a lot of character, even if it is a bit hard to control.

By coincidence, both diglloyd and Ming Thein posted articles about this lens today/yesterday.

I will be in Berlin from September 14th until September 22nd and it would be great if we could have another meeting on one of these two weekends.

What do you think?

Unfortunately the 15th is another Tempelhof tour, which I likely won't take since it is pricy and I am booked for one in July, and the 22nd is Spreepark, not all that exciting as you know from the time we were there. There is another company name go4foto.de which has other tours, but the only one which sounds good to me is the Alte Bäder tour, which is on the 29th.

Other ideas? There is some tour or other of underground Berlin but I don't have the details on hand.

Tempelhof is still tempting, September 15 would be possible for me. The "Alte Bäder" tour arranged by go4foto may be interesting as well but too late (September 29) and too expensive (EUR 89 ?!).
Carsten, I guess you'll post about your Tempelhof experience, no?

Hm, I'm neither interested in Tempelhof nor in Spreepark. Maybe we could find something else. My preferred meeting day would be the September 22. September 15 is probably the only day between 14 and 23 that is not possible for me.
Maybe we could ask go4foto.de if they could organize another Alte Bäder tour on the 22nd for us. What do you think?

September 22 is possible for me as well. I wonder if there are more images from "Alte Bäder" somewhere.

I spent some more time on the website, and it seems that they in general will do special tours, and that the number of participants is never that large, just 1-6. The price is quite high, but it includes a review session of the produced photos as well as a print. I might ask if we could leave out the print and reduce the price, since they would have to be shipped all over the place. All three of the tour guides do speak English. If I am going to ask further questions about Sep. 22, I need to have a good idea how many people would show up. So far, it seems like Boris, Jonas, Philippe and myself are interested, but are you committed to paying the price if I ask, even if other plans come up later? I imagine we could base a tour on this already, but if anyone else is interested, please post here ASAP and I will make the initial contact. I will also ask if there are more photos of the locations.

Jonas, I will certainly post about Tempelhof! Is anyone else booked into this tour? If the tour is really good, I might go again on Sep. 15. I find that good sites take more than one visit to exhaust.

I found the underground program I referred to earlier. Yet another guided tour company, this time perhaps less with photographers in mind? I need to study the program closer, but here is a link:

I'm pretty sure that this is true:
"Filming and photographing are generally not permitted in our underground facilities !"

Nope, photography is explicitly forbidden. Oh well. I might shoot them a note to ask if other arrangements are possible.

Carsten, I look forward to learn about your coming Tempelhof experience.

Berliner-unterwelten - Tour B gets my vote but then we have to get a special tour for our group, something walking very slowly and with photography incl tripods permitted.

Alte Bäder, a special tour for us in that case as well, is perhaps even more tempting than Berlin-unterwelten Tour B but how much will it be and is it possible to arrange a tour September 22.

I'm not 100% certain I can make it but I have booked Sept 22 for a Berlin trip.

I think, 89.- wouldn't be too much for Alte Bäder, if we get the date 22nd Sep. But I wouldn't need their Abzüge.

Where can I look for tours at Tempelhof? Which webadress?

Before I want to commit to 89 Euro, I would want to see more than the 3-4 photos they have posted, only one or two of which I actually find interesting... I will ask if there is a gallery somewhere.
