Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Very nice report with some exceptional shots.

Personally I don't fancy the shots with the people in the background, but there are plenty of fantastic shots without them.

Keep 'em coming,
Iwan

Nice pictures, indeed, thanks a lot... :respect:

Quand vous dites de l'autre côté, il s'agit bien de la crête en face ? Et quel objectif utilisez-vous ??
Je ne suis jamais allé à Axalp, 'sais pas si au niveau forme physique je pourrais supporter l'altitude...

Bien cordialement, Yves

"L'autre côté" -> la crête en face, tout a droit. Pas la plus grande toute en face de KP, celle-la, c'est interdit. Maismais... c'est tout a fait pourquoi j'ai crée la site ;) - pour ne pas devoir repondre les memes questions toutes les temps :mrgreen:. Regarde-le, tout-y-est! :)

Hope it's not forbidden to ocassionally use other languages here... in case there's a problem with it, here's my bribe for the mods: :bonk:

It's updated :-) Now it contains just about everything that you will ever need to know about the Axalp demonstration, as seen from any side (until they bloody change something again :mrgreen:). Enjoy the lecture :)

Yep, the first two are kind of what I ment by "not as good as I would want to" ;) I think this was the only time when the "right" side of the valley was actually wrong :mrgreen:
(although I'd give it a bit more of shadows, I've seen similar ones with darker parts nicely emphasized into a warm, autumn glow)

Jeroen, looking at the selection of pics on your page... you must spend a fortune on planes to Europe and back every year :mrgreen:

I have to try that... I just tried to create 'reality' with these pics. Your tip is highly appreciated though! More later...

2.
Just after Axalp I moved to Australia :-)
With some major events in Europe this year I think I will spend some money on flights...

BTW your (new) Axalp Guide is just perfect. Maybe I will try 'the other side' myself this year. Thank you!

cheers Jeroen
