I took this photo at the Vischmarkt in the historic center of Harderwijk. As you can see from the trees it was autumn when I took this picture. In the background you can see the characteristic Vischpoort of Harderwijk with to the left of it 4 wall houses. The trees you see in the picture are deciduous trees but I do not know what kind of tree it is. The pavement you see are cobblestones that cover much of this square. Personally, I think the Vischmarkt is one of the more beautiful squares in Harderwijk, also during autumn when the autumn colors are on the trees. During autumn it is also quieter on this square. The trees on the Vischmarkt give a line of sight towards the Vischpoort of Harderwijk. To take this photo, I put a 55-300mm lens on my camera. Given the short shutter speed and the stabilization of the lens, I took this photo out of hand. I chose to take this photo standing up so you can see the height of the trees.
