I had seen this weird looking place on Google Maps a long time ago. Now I had my camera with me and I decided to go and check this place out. Me and our friend Jolle took a tram and made it to Kallio, where this courtyard is located. We got in and it actually ended up looking better than on the satellite images I had seen.
Another cool little place that I didn't know existed in Helsinki. "Kallion tuubi" was found.

EverchangingBerlin – A meeting of European Instagramers in Berlin, Germany. Thomas, Uwa, Jörg and Mo had done a great job organizing a huge get-together for over 150 passioned smartphone shooters! Me and Samuel were excited to see some of our old friends from our trip to Portugal earlier this year and all these new faces that had joined the meeting this time. It was amazing to see some people in person who you have followed on Instagram for many years.
Berlin is an amazing city and so much fun to explore around. We ended up exploring some abandoned places like an old amusement park and a beautiful ballroom. There is so much to see in Berlin, that this weekend trip definitely didn't cover enough at all.
Here are some DSLR shots we took on our trip.
Before our trip we had just updated our camera gear at Rajala Pro Shop and we were excited to test them there. I had the Canon 5DMKIII with 35mm f/1.4L and Samuel had a 14mm f/2.8L on his camera and we were both very happy with the gear. We also shot some portraits with our new Canon 85mm f/1.2L II USM, and it is an amazing lens and I can't wait to shoot more with it!
