Great shots Doug!  Thanks for posting.

As I recall, you live in Germany, correct? As stated, we "just" returned 
from Berlin.  However, we were there in January and the weather was so cold 
and uncomfortable that I literally had my gloves on all the time.  The 
residents told us that the winter was one of the coldest in recent memory. 
I left the M cameras in the hotel, and used my wife's "credit card digital" 
for the few photographs I was able to take.

Was the exhibit of "German Portraits" still there (?)---I forget the museum, 
but very close to The Pergammon.  Unforgettable pictures of Germans of every 
social class and occupation, with memorable portraits of Hitler and his 
minions.
