Hi Markus,
sorry, my mistake...
Tom! Striewisch's "Living under the bridge"
is at the right spot
I just saw another spot that is called "Under the bridge..."
clearly also on the right spot (panorama by St?phane Negri)
I just couldn't make the difference from both pano titles. Have to get
some more coffee. ;-)
