~ Lens-Artists Challenge #373: Looking Back at Landscapes ~


Landscape photography typically features beautiful vistas in nature, scenes that open our eyes to the beauty of our earth in its various climates and topographies. This week, Egídio challenges us to limit our choices to no more than six images that we consider to be our best landscape photographs. Since I responded to the original challenge in 2019, #31 by Amy, I challenged myself to find other photos that are equally compelling to me.

This photo of Crater Lake in Oregon, USA is one I chose as “Postcard Perfect” for another Lens-Artists challenge.

Looking south from Fort Columbia Washington, this photo features the Astoria-Megler bridge that spans 4 miles across the mouth of the Columbia River.

The rolling hills of the Palouse, photographed from Steptoe Butte, are a unique landscape or rich agricultural fields.

Salmon Creek at Greenwater Rest Area near Oakridge, Oregon offers a refreshing break from the winding drive over Willamette Pass.

From my deck at the Breakers, in Long Beach WA, I was treated to this glorious sundown, a wonderful way to end a day, and just the right image to conclude this post!

On your walk with life, please honor our earth, encourage dignity and share kindness. 🐾

Thank you to Egídio, for bringing this challenge up again. You can view his original post here.

    Lindy, it is so hard to pick a favorite in this beautiful gallery. Each image had me drooling. They are gorgeous. Yup, Crater Lake is postcard perfect, and so are the Palouse scene and others. Your closing shot, especially, is stunning.
