Michelle Weber wrote:”This week, share a peek of something — a photo that reveals just enough of your subject to get us interested. A tantalizing detail. An unusual perspective.”

I was taken this photo in Berlin with two peeks (an unusual perspective): St. Mary’s Church, known in German as the Marienkirche, and the Television Tower known in German as the Fernsehturm.
