Ready for a puzzler?
This satellite image shows a place on our planet.

Tell us where this is, what we’re looking at, and why it’s interesting. (And, no, it’s not a close up of powdered donuts.)

pumice near a volcano covering an area of rocks and vegetation.

I was going to say sand dunes but the foot of the “hills” seem to be messy. Won’t be sand dunes. A dried up river bed may be?

Looks like snow on desert dunes - this could be the Gobi Desert.

The white stuff shows turbulence on the down-wind (assumption), lower left direction. It reminds me of cloud patterns. Is it possibly fog blowing over sand dunes? Could there be such a place?

My skin, after January in Boston, MA.

Or, sand dunes in Algeria. I like the Atacama Desert suggestion as well.
