I have a picture of me planking in front of the Reichstag if that will help.

Nice image of a park with shed leaves and frost. I like the mist.
However it

This is precisely what somebody said about an image of mine on
Thursday. I was showing a few prints from Normandy and the D-Day
landing beaches to a couple of people and one said, “..but this is
just a landscape.”
That’s right and like Trevor’s shot of Berlin, there is no signpost
saying where the shot is. I know it’s Utah Beach and almost everybody
else looking at the image knew it was too, but the young woman looking
at it just knew it was nice shot of some shadows and a beach.
It sounds like you need a shot of the Brandenburg Gate to prove it’s
Berlin, but meanwhile I’m sure somebody else will have been in the
Tiergarten and seen this piece of land under different conditions.
Maybe one of us has seen it when it was still littered with bomb craters.
