What are your Avatars of? I, personally have a picture of Peter Max, a continental airlines 777. I don't understand half of the Avatars and I would like to. Thanks!

Mine is the sunset east of Denver, taken out of the window of a Embraer ERJ-145.

I just have one of the typical avatars of skilifts.org, the lower station and lift line of the apres vous lift at Jackson Hole, although I want to get my own when a manage to get a camera up to the ski resort.

Mine is the first expert lift I ever rode- the Iceberg Ridge lift at Crystal Mountain, known familiarly as chair 2. It ran about where the Rainier Express lift runs now.
I do change my avatar occasionally, but I kind of like this one.

Are you a pilot? I don't see any other way you could have taken a picture that good. Also, I never see ERJ-145s @ DIA and I go there alot.

I thought yours was of the Independence @ Breck. Maybe not though.
