I won't try to write this in your language, Martin. My German is limited to booking hotels, buying train tickets, meals and simple conversation.
Welcome.
I would love to go to the Biathlon event at Ruhpolding, but tickets and accommodation are reserved a year in advance! Have you tried any photographs there?

Thanks again!
Especially for the encouragement, Marty
Ah, Miha, one of your topics, the one about matting, framing and why, really caught my eye back then. Very interesting discussion!

David, that's all the language skill one needs, the rest comes with being there and having, hopefully, a great time. Of course with the complication, that most try their English, while you want to use and broaden your German vocab

I have to admit, that sports is not really on my agenda and on top of it, I usually avoid big events of any kind. For the paper I made now and then sports, local football (the real one), athletics, such things. Anyway, the closest I came to Ruhpolding was being in Traunstein. It's a beautiful region, no doubt. And they surely want to keep it that way, seeing the result of the Winter Olympics referendum (a surprisingly clear NOlympics).
Anyway, hopefully you have soon the chance to see the world cup.

Hi Martin welcome to FADU I enjoyed your introduction and from one learning not so good printer you should join in the print exchange, you don't need to be qualified as just wanting to take part is the only qualification needed. Believe me I have received some great prints that have taught me a lot and had kind comments on the ones I sent all good for building confidence.
Richard

I've just re-read the thread and after almost 3 years I still don't have the answer...

Hi Martin, and welcome!

I'd say just go for it on the print exchanges. I felt the same way - I'd been printing for, oh, about 5 minutes...but I thought about it for a while and decided to jump in anyway.
