The image captures the town of Bingen, Germany from the Niederwald monument. The point of view is from an downwards angle which allows the viewers to see the whole town and river. The Rhein River splits into two rivers and splits the town into two halves. The town on the left land mass is concentrated on the corner near the river with barren fields blending into the background. A bridge connects the two land masses with the right side being more industrial with the train station, hotels, and larger buildings.Photograph Details
