Germany Mittellandkanal from Haster Kanalbrücke
The Mittellandkanal near Hannover in Germany offers some nice perspectives along the very straight canal.
Photography Tips
Because the canal itself and anything around it isn't that spectacular, it's probably a good idea to wait for a ship to pass by, which can add an interesting moving element to your photo. Days without wind also help to get a better reflection of the trees in the canal.
In autumn the canal leads into the sunset. So an evening with low wind and some clouds is ideal for nice sunset pictures at this spot.

Travel Information
The bridge the photo was taken from is called "Haster Kanalbrücke" which is a footbridge and therefore perfect to take photos without being in a hurry.
A parking lot (free) is located beside the bridge where road 442 is crossing the Mittellandkanal. From the parking lot, it is a nice short and easy walk (5-10 Minutes) to the footbridge.
