The Vivitar Panorama is a 35mm film camera that became a cult favorite in the 1990s. Known for its unique faux panoramic mode and budget-friendly price, it's perfect for capturing wide-angle shots. In the summer of 2022, I stumbled upon a golden Vivitar Panorama on eBay Kleinanzeigen for less than €10. After reading about it in a few blogs, I knew I had to buy it.

When I first visited the Bauhaus school in Dessau, one thing was missing: the Bauhaus sign that appears in most school images. That part of the building was covered with a tarp, and a replacement sign was in place. For years, I wondered when the original sign would be back in place, and I had an answer to that question in the summer of 2024.

In 2023, I got my hands on the Lomography LC-A+, a super cool analog camera. It's my first camera with control over exposure and ISO, so I knew I had to get out and use it! To kick things off, I loaded it with a Fuji Superia X-TRA 400 roll. This film is amazing for all situations because it's sharp, has super fine grain (meaning it looks smooth, not grainy), and can handle different lighting conditions.

However, the story doesn't end there. In July 2015, Murnau's final resting place in Stahnsdorf South-Western Cemetery was desecrated in an unusual set of circumstances. His skull was stolen, and although wax residue found at the scene hinted at a possible occult motive, the perpetrators and their intentions remain shrouded in mystery. This macabre incident has cast a shadow over the legacy of one of cinema's most visionary figures, leaving an enduring question mark alongside his undeniable contributions to the art form. His skull has not been recovered since.

Families were separated overnight, friends couldn't visit each other freely, and the Berlin Wall's construction led to a devastating housing crisis in West Berlin. You can still see some of these problems in the city today.

Sternburg is a super popular beer in Germany, especially on the east side of the country. It's flavorful, affordable, and a big part of Leipzig's culture. You can often find it in Berlin spätis for prices that, nowadays, range from 0,80€ to 1,50€ in fancier places. It's easily one of my favorite beers, and I was really happy to be able to visit the brewery for my birthday.
