A few years back I posted some images from my trip to Auschwitz. Since then I have changed to a new blog and the images became lost in Cyberspace. Quite a few people have asked about them so I have decided to post some here again.
These were taken in November 2007 and as you can see it was bitterly cold with a thin covering of snow which added to the bleakness of the place. It is an eerily silent place where people say the birds don’t sing. This is particularly true on the edge of the forest where the gas chambers were.
These were all shot on the Canon 5d with the 35m, 1.4 lens. Not only is this my favourite story telling lens but it was absolutely necessary for the low light.
