[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Yesterday was an amazing day over the Swiss Alps. This photo was taken a minute before my first Alpine Post. Again the combination of a clean airplane window, infinty focus and fast shutter (1/280) made this work. The light and clouds were a blessing that no one can expect. I was pretty lucky!

Another moody picture. Here we can see the clouds roling in over teh mountain. A magificant landscape. Indeed you wer lucly with clear air and clean window.

It's really very very good shot:)) Thanks for the sharing. Congrats:)

Again a marvellous shot, think I like this one better than the first. Amazing to think it was shot through a window you would never be able to tell. Great work.

I agree that you were lucky. I have never had a window so clean. The sea of clouds and the jagged peaks coming out is an impressive mix. regards.
