Fall of the berlin wall - 1989

“Few photojournalists capture the moods and dynamics of the 1989 East German uprising and fall of the Berlin Wall as Justin does.

He brings us a feeling of history in the making, but also the specific emotions, hopes and fears of the participants - and the images capture epochal  change being made in front of our eyes - elation and uncertainty.”
