Tag der Deutschen Einheit - Day of German Unity
October 3 is an annual national holiday, commemorating the reunification of Germany in 1990. Each year a different city hosts the main celebrations. This year it was Saarbrücken's turn. So, a town of 200,000 played host to a party with an estimated 500,000 participants. The 500-year old footbridge connecting events on both sides of the river was naturally rather packed.

ReplyDeleteGreat picture.
ReplyDeleteI like the colours and contrast between people and bridge.
You've captured a real sense of excitement, emphasized by the brightest colours being centered, and intersecting, right in the sweet spot of the photo.
ReplyDeleteI can almost hear the people, great job!
