A White Mountains State Of Mind.
When in search of “Grand,” I need look no further than the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Grand
I knew you could do this one on a grand scale! Love the banner shot of the ice, btw!
Thank you, I’m glad I didn’t disappoint. 😉
Great Photo. Please check out my blog at http://www.inspiringthroughthelens.com
Thank you, I will!

beautiful!
Absolutely stunning – every single one of them!
Thank you Ese, I’m glad you enjoyed them. I hope you have a glorious weekend!
Thank you, Jeff – deep in the snow 🙂
Wish you a wonderful one over there!
You’ve got snow? I’m more jealous than you can possible imagine!
It has been snowing all day and i don’t believe it will stop during the night. Has been all muddy through November so…yes, it’s time we get real winter. 🙂
these are beautiful! i love the blues in the final one
Thank you, and thanks for stopping by.
As usual, your colors are fabulous!
The expansiveness of earth is about as grand as you can get, outside the expansiveness of space. I especially like the following: 1. the reflected lake underneath the man standing in the foreground; 2. the sunset under the two snow photos—I like the somewhat light foreground, giving it much more depth than a merely black silhouetted everything else; 3. the photo with the boulder on the right side; and 4. my favorite, the bottom with the man in it. That’s really grand.
I’m finally getting back involved in these weekly photo challenges. For some reason, I stopped getting notifications of them, but did get this one. My entry isn’t the same kind of grandness as yours, but it’s grand in its own way: http://fstopfantasy.wordpress.com/ – I didn’t change a thing on this one, other than to crop it.
I recently purchased Elements 11 and am having a blast with it. I use both the guided and expert mode, depending on what I’m trying to do with it. However, the guided mode takes care of most of my needs.
Thanks Cris. That view is of the Presidential Range looking out over Cherry Pond. Quite possibly my favorite view in all NH. The other one you mentioned is from the one and only backpacking trip I was able to pull off this summer.
FYI, that bald(ing) headed stooge in the photo is me. 😛
Never been to NH but I heard it is very beautiful. Is the Presidential Range part of the Appalachian chain? There does seem to be a lot of mountains in NH, judging by all your photographs.
We’ve got mountains pretty much the entire length of the state. The Presidential Range is part of the White Mountains, and while not part of the Appalachian Mtns, the Appalachian Trail runs the entire length of the Presidentials.
Jeff, your photos are always grand in one way or another but I really enjoyed these. I love mountains and you captured the beauty of them perfectly. The last one has such a sense of space and color and I also like the one right above on the left with the big boulder.

Thank you Janet. NH has so much to offer, I’m not sure I’d want to live anywhere else. I’m just glad I can capture it in a way that seems to speak to people.
Oh my … I’m at loss of words! So close, and still I’ve never been there … [I’m in the Maritimes, Canada]
I have a few words, “Road Trip!” New Hampshire welcomes you. And of course, thank you very much.
Yes! That’s definitely on our list now, that I’ve seen your photos!
Many cars around here, have that sticker «This car climbed Mt Washington» 🙂
That’s funny, I killed one of my last cars “climbing” Mt Washington. And after having hiked it for the first time last year for the Mount Washington Observatory’s Seek The Peak fund raiser, I don’t think I could ever drive it again.
As a matter of fact, I’ll be hiking it again, and raffling off a couple of prints to help solicit donations, again this coming July. Can’t wait!
The last is my favorite GRAND !
Thank you 🙂
Mountain Majesty, indeed.
Thank you. New Hampshire is a wonderful place, and it’s my job to show it off!
Gorgeous – looks like you get there for every season
Thank you, I try. My favorite is winter, followed closely by autumn. There’s something about being high in the mountains in the winter that is addicting.
your photos are always grand. what a great collection of majestic views 🙂
Thank you very much!
Absolutely stunning photos, it looks like such a great place to hike and climb.
Thanks Charlie, it really is. Nothing like out west of course, but you won’t hear me complaining 🙂
it’s nice to wake up to these images! “grand” work!
Thank you and Good Morning! And now I’m off to bed 🙂
love every picture Jeff! The sights are really grand ,for when it comes to nature nothing can match that!
Thank you. I totally agree. People tell me how great my photographs are, but I often feel I’m just the messenger. It’s nature that really creates the beauty in my photographs.
love every picture Jeff! The sights are really grand ,for when it comes to nature nothing can match that!
Gorgeous! Makes me miss home!
Thank you Jane, you should come back for a visit some time. It’s just as beautiful as when you left.
Grand visions, beautiful images. You let the mountain grand-eur speak for itself.
Thank you Lee. That’s how I feel, the mountains are doing all the talking, I’m just there taking notes.
Oooh! Didn’t expect anything less Jeff! 🙂
Thanks Madhu, I do always try to show my best. I think it’s the show-off in me. 😉
A grand display! 🙂
Life is grand when you do what you love bests. Grand at its best.
Yes, yes it is.
Lovely shots Jeff – you’ve captured so many lovely seasons and times of day – your love for the home scenery comes shining through! Grand indeed 🙂
Thank you kindly Tina!
stunning!
Thanks Audrey!
I was 100% sure that I’d already commented on this post, but obviously I was wrong!
