“I love big-city photography, and Hamburg offers a great mix of traditional and new architecture,” says Hamburg local Tom Merkel (@tomtehh). Born and raised in the harbor city, he knows the details of Hamburg like the back of his hand. Tom is drawn to the picturesque bridges in the Speicherstadt district and to the Sternschanze neighborhood's trendy people and raw graffiti. He made this image in the U4 Überseequartier metro station and gives this photography tip for visiting Instagrammers: “This station offers intriguing symmetrical elements that invite visitors to experiment with centered shots. You'll get a better angle when you stand a level above the platform—this allows you to see an overview of the whole station.” To see more of Hamburg through a #LocalLens, follow @tomtehh.
