Council parking permit holder

Hi,
I have received a parking fine for £25 from the Council (It was stuck on my windscreen). I appealed the fine and sent them a photo of the permit. They have written to me and rejected the claim. They have 2 photos which only show a reflection of the trees through the windscreen.
My permit had fallen off the dashboard so it wasn't visible. However, I am reluctant to pay a fine after already holding a valid parking permit. This seems unfair.
Have I got grounds to challenge the appeal as the photograph does not adaquetly show that no parking permit is on show? If I lose then the fine will double to £50.
Thanks!
