Since I solved Nr. 2 (even Sebastian knew it before, but didn't solve it) here's a new one. As you can see it's in the dolomites mountain, but where?

A hint: it's very popular, but not so much from this perspective. Mathias might know it because ...

Geisler Mountains?

I haven't been in The Dolomites yet. Tre Cime di Lavaredo

Monte Cristallo or Tofana di Mezzo and di Dentro

Mathias Zehring might know it because he owns this one on SP.

The mountain is usually shown from other directions.

A very controverse discussed Italian mountaineer who claimed to have climbed Cerro Torre first (but from nowadays facts didn't make it) is living close to the place this picture was taken from.

Hmmm, don' t know much of the Dolimites, but I guess the mountain is close to Cortina d' Ampezzo and higher than 2500m?

Monte Pelmo and neighbours

It is higher than 2500m, but not close to Cortina d' Ampezzo.

There is another popular Italian ski-resort not far away and a small ski resort very close to from where the picture was taken.

Another tip: the picture was taken looking directly to the east.

Brenta Alps: Caesar Maestri lives there.

Brenta is correct. That makes the quest a lot easier. Cesare Maestri lives in Madonna di Campiglio.

But which mountain is (the highest) in this picture?

It's Val di Nardis, the Francingli sub-group. Middle in the pic, Cima Fracinglio, Dosson dei Fracingli and Cima Nardis

Val Nardis is correct. The picture was taken close to Doss Del Sabion, in winter a highpoint of the small Pinzolo ski-area.

This was taken with my first digital camera in July 2001. The sharpness in distance is not so good.

The highest mountain is snow-capped and peaking out left of the middle: it's Cima Tosa (3173m), once and before melting of it's summit glacier ice cap the highest mountain in the brenta group and still listed like this here on SP. Other sources say that now the highest is Cima Brenta, because even you can still find the 3173m in maps or guidebooks this elevation is nowadays about 50m to high. Most pictures of Cima Tosa are from the north (ice-coloir) or from southwest (normal route).

The peak inside the middle of the picture with the snowfield at the base of the rock is Cima d'Ambiez (3102m).

Compare this picture: http://www.summitpost.org/view_object.p ... _id=113874

Cima Nardis (2623m) is the second peak from the left side (next to the first peak in front with some grass on top).

Cima Francinglo II (2880m) is the third peak from the left side. Cima Tosa is peaking out above it and between it and Cima d'Ambiez (which is hard to see because of the old digital prozessor of that time).

The fifth peak from left to right is Cima di Val d' Agola (2960m), the sixth peak from the left side (or the first from the right side) is Prato Fiorito (2900m).

Ok, it's solved so I am waiting for the next one and want to guess!
