I also had my other camera running with a wide angle lens. You can see the corresponding storm cell and faintly above three red sprites (the right one is the one pictured above)
The sprite was most likely triggered by this extremely strong 308kA CG+ flash that struck into a small hill near Füssen in Southern Bavaria. I was positioned 65 km to the northeast of this flash.
Content warning: Here are two timelapses made from the sprite image sequence. It's hard to miss all the satellites - most of them are #Starlink I barely captured a single image without one. Quite frightening in my opinion. CW because of flickering lightning.
