D 82 - Not only Berlin

Szczecin. A port city in Northwest Poland. 10 km from German border.

I was fascinated by this half devastated brick wall on the edge of a run-down neighborhood. It seemed to reflect the difficult history of this German city after WW2. Who sheared those bricks from the wall? how? and why?

What I learned

With overcast weather none of my attempts to show the fascinating texture of scraped bricks worked out. So I have stepped back and shown a contrast between damaged and untouched bricks, adding some perspective.
