Was thinking it might be good to share photos about where you were flying while on holidays :D (well, at least for the lucky ones who can bring a glider / plane while on holidays!)
My evening slope for a week :D

Nice sunsets Fred. :clap:
The last time I tried taking photos AND flying planes things didn’t turn out too well. In fact, I crashed! :oops:
Now I know you’ve been flying a little longer than me :roll: , allright a lot longer than me, but how did you get that pics with the plane? and in the middle of the shot as well!! 8)

Very nice indeed, forgot what it was to fly at home with 35 degrees! Can take that every day!! :D
For the photos, actually used my Iphone :oops:
Phone in the pocket, slow trajectory, release the aileron's stick (I'm mode 1!), swipe the screen to open the photo mode, take photo, back in pocket, do a U turn, and go again! :P
Just fly slowly, plenty of time to take the photo (and almost no, if any, wind, that helps!).
Off to Portmagee this week end, weather permitting, invited to fly by 2 "local" guys. Had to say yes :D
Must fix my ASW15 airbrakes!!
I'll try to take some photos, but weather is not looking too good so far :(

Yep, more my kind of weather!
Was 38 degrees in my home town yesterday, cooling down, was 42 over the week end :D
