I haven’t spent much time in downtown Bend recently so today I took a walk through town on my lunch hour.
It’s a really cool town and had a lot of interesting photo opportunities.
I captured just a few in the short time I had to spend. It was very hot and very bright out during mid-day.
I will be spending more time in and around town to capture more photos.

Wonderful colors nd composition! Love these!
It certainly looks beautiful. I’ll have to make it out there someday.
It really is a beautiful area. Lots of beautiful areas in Oregon.
Looks like a beautiful and colorful place. Looking forward to seeing more of it.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
It is a beautiful town. I’m looking forward to getting around more and taking photos. I’ve lived here for 11 years and there are still areas I’m not familiar with. Shame on me.
An explosion in colors … wonderful. Every intense – the boots must be my favorite.
Thanks, Viveka. I liked the boots, too.
I love Central Oregon! You always make me wish I was there!!
I like it here a lot.
Lovely colours, love the snow on the mountain
Thanks. It’s warming up quickly so there won’t be snow on the mountains much longer. It never completely disappears, but the summers here are very warm and dry so much of it melts off.
Looks like a charming and colourful place. Love the funky boots! 🙂
There is a lot of charm to Bend. I like the boots, too.
Thanks for taking us along with you on your walk Maralee. I dream of visiting Oregon and Washington one of these days.
The Pacific Northwest is a beautiful area. When you visit, try the summer or fall. No rain, cloudless skies, it’s gorgeous.
I love the boots in the wagon photo (great color and composition) as well as the bridge photo. What a lovely area you live in!
these are so pretty.. : )
