At Potsdamer Platz there is a hotel and apartment tower, the Grand Hotels Esplanade, that’s an up-market combination of old and new styles. The old styles are courtesy of the post-war remnants of the building and the new styles are a mix of stylish and garish (hence the neon green).
So I noticed the mirror and like the happily vain person that I am, I took a self-portrait.
