Eventually, sunset time rolled around and, although I didn't get the red sky I'd hoped for, at least the water calmed down to a mirror image. I loved the place and would return if ever I was lucky enough to be in Oregon again.
This is just a few miles from my home. As you stand atop Paulina Peak, you can see Paulina Lake to the west, East Lake to the East and the Obsidian flow making it's way toward the two. This is overlooking the Newberry Caldera National Monument.
The road to the famous Tumalo Falls Trail was closed for repairs. But the views at the trailhead were something to see.
Oregon has to be one of the best states for a landscape photographer in the USA. You can virtually drive on any road and find great vistas and a wide variety of landscapes from deserts and coastal beaches to lush forests and mountain ranges. Sparks Lake near Bend is a great location to catch a view of some of the best known mountains in OR - the 3 sisters and Broken Top. Although there weren't any clouds on this day to create a dramatic sunrise, it was still a wonderful experience to stand by the lake in the morning cold and take in the unfolding scene as the rising sun warmed the peaks and caused the mist to disperse from over the lake surface. There's tons of hiking trails nearby, some that even take you to the summit of a couple of the mountains. This is one location I will definitely be returning to in the near future. Thank you for stopping by. #goldenhour #OR #USA #Oregon #SparksLake #Lake #Sunrise #Dawn #colorful #waterlust #weekend #hiking #roadtrip #blue #bestof5

There was a gorgeous 2 mile hike through lush forest and lava rock to get to this beauty. It is the most incredible blue I have seen. The water is a freezing 40 degrees and is the headwaters of the McKenzie River. Yes, people were actually jumping in and quickly popping back out.
