Bend Beauty


For those of you who have never been to Bend, Oregon, it is located in Central Oregon on the east side of the Cascade Mountains and commonly known as high desert. Desert evokes cacti and flat sandy land, but Bend is nestled amidst white and Ponderosa pines and juniper and gets plenty of snow in the Winter. This photo is shot from an area of Bend known as Westside and looks at the volcanic peaks surrounding Bend's exciting ski area, Mt Bachelor. Jet trails created by air traffic from Portland, 200 miles away often create dramatic murals soothing to the eye.
