I was driving to a job site the other day, and this is the view I found at the top of a hill. Taking landscape photos in Utah is surprisingly easy, or maybe it’s not that surprising. We have a wide range of beautiful vistas throughout the state. This view is of Utah Valley (home of Provo, Orem, and Brigham Young University). The following photo is a landscape view of the Salt Lake Valley (home of Salt Lake City, the Capitol Building, and the University of Utah).
*sigh* I love where I live.
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR MORE) OF LANDSCAPES.
Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.
Here’s how it works:
- Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.
- To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.
- Come back here and post a link to your image in the comments for this challenge.
- Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.

It’s beautiful, Nany! I can well understand that you love this area. I can’t offer such magnificent sweeping view with these grandiose mountains in the back but – it is home https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2020/01/31/heimat/
Beautiful Nancy.. wow what a landscape. Love the sweeping mountains and of course the snow xx
It was a cold day with mist, so my photos are not very clear.

You’re gonna get a lot of hits with this one!
Thanks!
Beautiful pics. I loved Utah and found some of the rugged landscapes very similar to that found in Western Australia, I loved Bryce Canyon. A memorable visit.
Utah’s landscape is so diverse. Southern Utah has amazing red rock valleys and mountains, and northern Utah has lush pine forests with grand mountains. I love living here.
It’s the opposite in Western Australia. It is red and rugged up north but the southwest is forest, timber country where beautiful wild orchids can be found.
Love your landscapes, Nancy – especially the one with winter flowers in the foreground! Thanks for the challenge.
Thanks!
What a beautiful plain with those distant mountains..
A little late, but it was as fast as I could process!

We REALLY need to get to Utah. We’ve been planning it for more than a decade, but it was always the wrong time of year. If we get out west ONCE more, we’re heading for your home turf. What glorious scenery!

You do live in a beautiful place! I’ve edited a photo from the South West Coast Path which is a beautiful place to walk here in England: https://wp.me/p2owKx-1ue
