Another shot of Auschwitz at sunrise, as I was waiting in the cold for the museum to open. This poplar tree was standing there alone, tilted, overlooking the camp. I wonder if it already was there in 1941 or if it was planted afterwards, like the ones the SS put around the ruins of the crematoria of Birkenau, to conceal them...

Edit: I redid the whole post-processing to obtain something which matched more what I was feeling than what I was seeing. You can still see the old version here.

  • Les couleurs de l'originale sont magnifiques, malgré tout j'aime particulièrement ce que tu en as fait ici.
    J'aime bien ton style de photos, tu voudrais pas prendre un peu des gens, que je puisse m'en inspirer pour mes dessins... ?
