My son and I headed out for early evening fly fishing on the upper Deschutes River near Bend, Oregon. Instead of casting for sassy trout, I angled for a few good pictures for Skywatch Friday. At our favorite fishing spot, the river squeezes its way along the edge of an enormous lava flow from a not too long extinct volcano. The thick jagged texture and size of this phenomenon is a sight to behold. In the above picture one brave pine has managed to find a foothold in this barren world. This tree stands tall and tenacious, poking up defiantly before the multi-colored sky behind it.

Always amazed by the "one" tree scenes;they seem to be so poetic.
Simply beautiful.
Captured it greatly.
Yup, everybody right. I love it, I love sunset.
The tree makes it! Super shot. Long ago I came to the place where I'd rather take pictures than fish!
Thanks for the Ocala DP comment...you should be a realtor! ;-)
This is really really nice, Lee.
Another gem from Bend. I loved it the minute I saw it.
Such a beautiful sunset in a great part of the country. Hope it's a little cooler down your way.
