Berlin Nights

The German capital attracts artists and students from all over the world. These in turn inspire the city's nightlife. Istabraq has been living in Germany since 2017 and has documented hotspots in Berlin with his camera. He is a graduate of the journalism training "Photojournalism and Visual Storytelling" with trainer Sven Creutzmann, where the photo series was created.
