[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
This is the Bundeskanzleramt (The Chancellery) in Berlin, the official residence of the Chancellor of Germany.

North of the Reichstag, a ribbon of government buildings has been built, the Chancellery is one of them. The architects of this building are Axel Schultes and Charlotte Frank. The Chancellor (Gerhard Schröder) took up official residence in the new building on 30 April 2001. It is the second most important government building in Berlin, after the Reichstag.
Schröder has called the building an oversize washing machine.

I cropped the picture a bit, sharpened it and added a frame.
Hope you like it!

Wow, a large sized modern government building. I like the way you present it. Judging from the traffic in front of the building, it is a busy place even if the snow covered everywhere.
You have done a great job with your homework. I have been enjoying reading your notes. It will help me when I go to visit that place in the future.
An excellent POV to provide a perspective view of the building. Very clear and good contrast. The cloud looks interesting. I like your frame with a color matches the fense.

Eindelijk, andere moderne Berlijnse architectuur dan de Rijksdag. Jammer dat je niet b.v. foto's hebt van de Scandinavische en Nederlandse ambassade. Maar het werk (conferentie) gaat voor het meisje (nog meer mooie foto’s).
Mooie foto met een speciale sfeer door de sneeuw.

Hey Lars...I was trying to guess what site of Berlin you'd put up next...here we go...the washing machine...not a really pretty building..but still interesting to see and nicely framed here.. Regards... Léonie

That sure is a big building just for that purpose. I wonder why they call it an oversize washing machine? Probably because it is so modern. Looks like the sky was more cooperative here for you. I still have an urge to get silly with those photo filters in Photoshop again! ;) Speaking of massive government buildings I live about 40 minutes drive from the Pentagon, I should take some shots there. Nice shooting Lars, and thanks for teaching me something in your note!

Nice shot with good perspective and lighting. The weather is not very good, for photos (there is no sun) but your picture presents this building very good. Well done!!

Regards John

Very larg and complete view from this important building. This is a powerfull architecture you show well in the picture, and also an open one whith all this glass areas.
I like it

Hoe mooi uw foto ook mag zijn de andere series was voormij absoluut aantrekkelijker, maar Lars het zou monotoom zijn mocht men niet eens veranderen, de moderne architecture hier heeft zeker zijn charme en zijn kwaliteit, alleen een beetje voorzichtig met de hemel, want er ontstaan kleine blokjes!!!
Groeten,
John.

Bonjour Lars, belle photo d'architecture avec une légère dominante bleue.
Beau travail.

Hello Lars, beautiful photo of architecture with light dominant blue.
Beautiful work.
JP

nice work, I like the way you took this shot, really good angle and the note is great

Hi Lars!
I like your architecture- is really powerfull. The weather is't good... but photo is nice :)
Regards.

Bonsoir Lars,
Voilà une résidence digne d'un Roi ! Merci de nous faire partager cette prise de vue. Malgré les moyens modernes de communication, nous n'avons pas toujours l'occasion de voir en détail ce genre de bâtiment.
L'angle de prise de vue est réussi.
Composition architecturale de bon aloi.
Très bien fait.
Philippe

Hej Lars,
Thanks for bringing this place to my attention I had never seen any view of it before, you have a good angle to give a good idea of it and I prefer to call this an ugly bunker !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Lars,
Very good documantary picture of this a little strange building. Good exposure, even though the wether probably was not fine. I appreciate an informative and funy note too.

Thanks,
Marek

I didn't know this knickname... It was quite hard to shoot for me. Your frame is an interesting one, even if I had preferef it without cars...

Bonjour Lars !
Une curiosité architecturale bien rendue mais qui aurait mérité une meilleure lumière et une plus grande définition.

Perhaps not a washing machine, but a rather strange building, since it is difficult to understand what it tries to look like. Our German friends seem to be better in designing sophisticated machinery than for architecture if this one is an example of the current official style...

All the best,

Emmanuel
