Nagano (Japan): with an ice waterfall in first plan wich give it, from my point of view ( North of Paris, France, :tiphat: ) an astonishing aspect; and Orion, Taurus, and the Pleiades.

...but there is many others that i like.

If I may add my 2 pennies worth.
Photos 3 and 6 from the link above get my vote. Photo 7 for doing what photos do so well, that moment in time. Some of the others could have been taken any time in the next 100 years. No.7 ......you had to be there!
( dont rate no. 1 at all. )
