Germany Elbbrücken (Highway bridges), Hamburg
If you have patience, you can take great long exposures here. Since you are standing in the middle of the motorway bridge, however, the rolling traffic destroys a large part of the exposures.
Especially in winter, when the drift ice is floating on the surface of the Elbe, the images are fabulous!

Photography Tips
Use neutral density filters and leave the image stabilizer switched on on the tripod. It really does its job ... :)
Do not choose the exposure time too long - 20 seconds are rarely possible without the camera shake caused by the trucks.
