Germany Festung Ehrenbreitstein - Festungsleuchten, Koblenz
The annual event "Festungsleuchten" is especially interesting for photographers, showing Ehrenbreitstein Fortress (DE: "Festung Ehrenbreitstein") in Koblenz in a completely different way. There are a lot of great motives to photograph and the fortress in general offers a beautiful view over the Rhine river and the entire valley with Koblenz.
Photography Tips
A tripod is highly recommended since the event is happening in the dark. Multiple Exposures can also make sense to get the most out of the details of the high contrasts between the dark night sky and the bright lights.
