Berlin has always held a fascination for me. Growing up in the Cold War era I was intrigued by how a city could be divided physically in two on the basis of ideology.

I have always been interested in history, since I can remember, after all it is why we are who we are.

Berlin has been at the centre of two world wars and was until 1989 the potential flashpoint for a third. I decided to publish my photo collection as a historical document and in dedication to all those that have died through war and ideology.

If you have any up to date photos of the locations I have shown that you are willing to share with me you can email at info@berlinphotos.co.uk.
