Wuppertal – Platz der Republik
There's a well known public place, with some trees, a playground and some banks on it called "Platz der Republik". There are usually many people hanging around or walking their dogs, but at night it gets a bit more unpopulated. That's when we went there looking for a spot to slackline with some electric light. So that we could slack independent from the daylight :)
On our first uproach, lightning and thunder started the moment when we stepped on the grass. We flew back inside and waited until the storm stopped. And we tried again. :)
First we set up the line between some kind of scaffold but it was too instable so we tried some trees instead.
The place at night.
The slackline at night.. My camera wasn't able to caputre this :

I had to push some buttons to make that image look like this :) It's me stepping on the line - but i actually liked the image so much that I decided to put it here - though you can't see anything special...
