I just returned from vacation in Austria. Here is a picture on a piste in Bad Hofgastein, somewhere at 2000m altitude.
oooooh, wonderful landscape. and nice portrait :rolleyes:
nice, cilu.. :thumb:
BTW, what is a piste ?
Nice photo, Marius. :thumb:
// Edit: I wonder if you were able to meet up with Florian? :)
Pure beauty! Bad Gastein and its surroundings is IMO the best place if you're looking for beautiful landscape, long runs and good afterski :thumb:.Quote:

This is a photo taken at the White Sands, in New Mexico...

As the name suggests, the desert sands are white as salt. :)
A beautiful area, although I haven't been there since I left the defense industry....Quote:

Just watch out for errant missles [although they rarely leave the testing range, you can often spot their trails....] :D
I recognize that sand! I've vacationed (somewhere close?) twice.
nice , Siddhartha :wave: Did you get a chance to visit Carlsbad Caverns ?
:D When I visited White Sands, I did infact miss a road and happened to end up driving into a defense area. Was scary as I hadn't carried passport along with me on that trip. Didn't have any troubles though :)Quote:

You were driving to White Sands from Alamogordo too. Coincidentally, even I missed the exit to the White Sands and continued in direction of the Missile Testing range.Quote:
