I knew this one would be easy. One more detail about the German sculpture, it's steel not stone. I took this photo the first year the sculpture was displayed. It is raw steel and has developed a wonderful rust patina over the years.

Don't forget that I rode most of the passes during my five years in Germany.

Jealous. I've only driven a couple although I did find myself on a train through the mountains while driving from Berchtesgaden to Venice. It was a bit of a surprise to come to the end of the road at a train station thanks to a navi that I didn't realize was set to avoid toll roads. It was a cool experience.

It's not always easy. Sometimes you have to watch for other clues in the picture like signs and language or focus on a certain area of unusual architecture. Historical landmarks are usually very easy since there are gazillion pictures on the web. Regardless, I find this thread very educational.
