Hello All, and sorry for not being here in a long time.
This summer we spent a week at Lake Garda in Italy, so a stop-over in Fichtelgebirge made sense for various reasons: it was half-way through the journey, a very nice area for a Mittelgebirgs-freak, and a good way to stretch ones legs after hours in the car. Back in '99 my wife and I camped at Fichtelsee and hastely visited Ochsenkopf in fog, so it was kind of like having a Rucksack there...We arrived around 18 pm in Bischofsgrün, found a restaurant, and around 19:30 I started walking. Besides a few Nucifragas there wasn't much life in the forest. Around 21 pm I reached the summit and spent some minutes on the Warzeichen-rocks. I hadn't thought about a pano, but quickly I decided to make a few series, only with the 50 mm lens. The feeling was very special; it was completely quiet, no wind and no people. The often cited (on ap and pp) title "Über allen Gipfeln ist Ruh" made perfectly sense. I couldn't really judge if the visibility was nice or fantastic but from udeuschle it seems it exceeded the 100 km, with views of the Rhön and Dolmar. Apart from a short telepano of Haberstein, the vacation was a pano-disaster; that was the only two I produced:-(
Original put on as a riddle: For those kean and eager of the community, try guess my location on this evening.
DISCLAIMER: I have de-clued it by removing an object, otherwise I fear it will be too easy to solve, but a little information nonetheless: There can be linked a few panos from here, there are made 2 panos from here, but only in wintertime, and only one in this direction. Regarding the time, the camerawatch is probably a little out of time, give or take some minutes. About the visibility, I judged it on location to be good but not perfect, but later from udeuschle it seems I almost hit a jackpot this evening. Have fun!
Pano made from 12 pics (RAW), 50 mm, 1/200 s, f 5,6, iso400, developed in DPP (daylight, neutral, sharpened a little, ALO off), stitched in PTgui pro, a minor contrastwork in GIMP, down-scaling and sharpening in IrfanView.

@Friedemann, ja, schade...what was I THINKING? Wilfried had a slightly better view 2 years ago, and luckily made a tele-pano:
