New perspectives

When you search for the Brandenburg gate on the internet, the pictures that appear present the gate either beautifully illuminated while contrasted with a black night sky or with a magnificent backdrop of ocean blue.  The photographers that captured these photos neglect to share the gate in a more subdued atmosphere, without the distracting radiance of backlights or sunshine.  
However, after walking around historic Berlin under a gray overcast sky splattering icy water for four hours, I am able to share this unique angle with you.
