Holger Biermann: Piraten, Berlin 2008

In July 2008 I was invited with my camera to join the wreck of the “Dr. Ingrid Wrengler”, which had been in the Spree for years. Young Berlin party people had conquered the former passenger ship with boats on this high summer day and offered to take me along. I agreed and stayed on board for an hour before missing re-boarding the swaying inflatable boat on the way back. Zzzzzzz it went then for me deeply down into the cold water. The camera was ruined, but the pirate photo is saved.
