So for the Autumn picture contest I chosed an awesome view of the Danube valley. Unfortunately the sun wasn't that bright that day. So the choice was scenery versus light.

Scenery won, these were the losers:

Forget to include this picture of November morning fog over the meadows at sunrise

An interesting, albeit irrelevant detail, the city on the horizon is Red Rum's residence.

I think I would have picked #4. All very nice, though, so I can see how you had trouble deciding.

Well curiosuly enough, somebody else selected #4 as well, however, #2 and #3 were on the top of my list. These were taken 3 years ago in the area of Lichtenstein castle before the FZ-8/EOS 450D period.

Curious detail: It was build in the nineteenth century after a book had been published about the non-existent castle.
