I'm like 87.3% certain that that's not a meteor, but an Iridium flare. They have the same appearance as your photo: Long, smooth appearance and disappearance, but longer on one end.
If the picture was taken around 2:49 am on 14 July and you were facing East, it might've been Iridium 76, as it passed over Vienna around that time. However, there were probably lots of them over the course of the night, that was just the first one I saw that passed close by.
Regardless, however, it's a pretty fantastic picture! Nice work.

Really nice shot. This could be one of the new windows default backgrounds
