Germany The tram to Drachenfels
From the spot you can see the Drachenfelsbahn (Drachenfels-Tram) carrying passengers to the famous Drachenburg Castle.
Photography Tips
A short telephoto will help compress the background, but really any focal length between 24-200mm will do, depending on the look you are after. The tram passes right below you, so it is very close.
Be sure to check both sides of the bridge, as in the other direction you can see a part of Bonn in the background.
