Hi Markus, It's just overexposed. Probably by about two f stops. You've lost the highlight detail because it's exposed beyond the limits of the film or sensor. Go with two stops less exposure. If you're shooting digital, shoot RAW and dial in your exposure beofre you convert., But you have to come close initially. This shot is critically overexposed as shot. However, it's a nice image. Try it again. Paul
