TALC: Merry Crisis and Happy New Fear.., a photo from Midi-Pyrenees, South

Photographer's Note

Just joking....this is a TALC for Tapdur (Bruno) to start 2009...

A symbolic picture to start 2009: sliding into the uncertain...but hopefully positive for all of you despite the crisis!

This picture was taken on the top of the skiing resort of Piau Engaly in the french Pyr幯嶪s which had the most beautiful skiing conditions I have ever found in my life this year! Fantastic snow, weather and not too many people!

Happy New Year to everybody!!

Hi leonie!

Your TALC is well inspired! You made me smile, and the meaning is so true! The idea to accompany this with a picture of ski (and the promise of a vertiginous downhill) is excellent... The picture is good too, with its bright light and the top of the hill like an M... I hope it does not announce another 'year in the merde', as would say the writer Stephen Clarke!
Best regards
Happy New year
Marine

Hallo Leonie! Lustige Verdreher und sehr passend was uns bevorsteht. Aber zuerst geniessen wir noch eine tolle Runde Skifahren, bestens illustriert auf Deinem Winterbild. Auch Dir, die allerbesten Wuensche ... auf weitere Reisen und rassige Skifahrten ... Barbara.

Bonjour Leonie
etonnante image. On dirait une fourmilli鋨e. On dirait aussi que les skieurs sortent de nulle part, ou du sommet d'un crat鋨e.
Je te souhaite une bonne ann嶪 avec un programme meilleur que celui que tu nous proposes.
Amicalement
Bertrand

Bella foto! Sono uno sciatore e mi piace molto la montagna d'inverno. Vedo che la pista � molto usata, dalle cunette presenti, quindi il posto raccoglie molti appassionati.
Un caro saluto e un abbraccio

Nice composition, top of the world, but it's a long way down. A good symbolism.
cheers,

haha, funny title, L廩nie. Perfect way to start the year - as I said before, I envy you and I wish I could be there sliding with you. The pic is very beautiful and sugestive. Excellent light and well chosen POV.
Happy New Year to you!

hello L廩nie,
I like this shot a lot, the people seem like tiny ants against the size of the mountain, always good to remember the real scale of things :) I hesitate to say that this is a minimalistic composition, although for me it feels exactly that - simple shapes, very few details, even fewer colours, but the result is very impressive. excellent work, my compliments.

regards,
Kristine

Bonjour,

Joli titre pour le TALC, il me fait bien rire.
Habituellement les photos de stations de ski ne sont pas tres interessantes, mais ici grace a l arriere plan nuageux qui clot la scene cette pente prend une tournure un peu surrealiste. Tres reussi,

Yves.
