The Fernsehturm (German for television tower) is a television tower in the city centre of Berlin, Germany. Close to Alexanderplatz and part of the World Federation of Great Towers (WFGT), the tower was constructed between 1965 and 1969 by the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) administration who intended it as a symbol of Berlin, which it remains today, as it is easily visible throughout the central and some suburban districts of Berlin. While out early morning shooting, at the Brandenburg Gate, we turned around and saw the Tower, appearing from the early morning cloud. Had to make a very swift lens change as I didn't expect this view to last.
