A 180° view from the top of the Arminius Monument.
I was a bit in a hurry when we took this picture and the platform we were standing on was continuously swinging in the wind 50 meters above the ground, – that's why not every part of the image is as sharp as it should be.. some day I will do a new one. I'd like to thank the guys at 'Begemann's Mietlift' for helping me with this picture. My special thanks go to André and Klaus. Check out their website if you ever need a moving platform somewhere in northern Germany.. http://www.begemanns-mietlift.de size: 100000 x 8000 px printed size: 8.60 x 0.70m @ 300dpi 17.30 x 135m @ 150dpi 25.60 x 2.00m @ 100dpi 86,40 x 6,75m @ 30dpi ©2008 Markus Krueger Digital Park | neue medien http://www.digital-park.de |

The westphalian open air museum ist the largest of it's kind in Germany and one of the largest worldwide.
It is a recreation common life of the past 500 years in Westphalia arranged on more than 100 hectares. More than 100 historic houses, pulled down at their original places have been reerected in the museum. Every year a few days before christmas doors are open for the 'Museumsadvent' a christmas market, located in the the so called 'Paderborner Dorf' (Paderborn village). It's a very beautiful spot indeed. If you ever come to Eastern Westphalia be shure to have a look.
