The Lens Artists Challenge is hosted this week by Tina. She coaxes us:

“Each of us at some point has visited a place that holds special memories. It may have been a small town, a big city, or even better, an entire country.  We’d like you to capture the spirit of a place that is vivid in your memory. What was it that drew you in and why did it capture YOUR heart?”

Ski resorts, skiing, mountains, mountain homes.  I rest my case.  (Why am I not there?  Avoiding happiness, of course.)

North of 285, South Park, and Jefferson, CO.

At Copper Mountain, circa 12,000′ ASL, give or take. (No, that’s not an oxygen mask.)

Mt. San Jacinto, Palm Springs, SoCal.

Steamboat (Springs). Colorado.

Alta, Utah. Decades ago. Print to digital conversion.

Alta, same as before. A previous incarnation.

Home sweet home sweet home, once upon a time in the West. Views to die for. SOLD, to the highest bidder.

Stairs? I was younger then.

Cross-country skiing, the water tank on Boreas Pass road. Previous incarnation, etc.

Cheers.

Weekly Challenge info from Tina:

“Each Saturday at noon EST we will publish a photo challenge similar in form to the now-defunct WPC. If you choose to participate, please make sure to tag your post with the name of our group LENS-ARTISTS so that all of the responses can be found together in the WP Reader. Please also include a link to the challenge moderator’s post. One of our 4 moderators will host the challenge each week.”
