There’s nothing more beautiful than the Oregon landscape aglow with the colors of the sun. Vibrant magentas, blues, and golds stream across the sky, fill the lakes and ocean with color, and paint the hillsides with fiery light. There’s something so breathtaking about the moment the sun rises or sets, casting an otherworldly light over the world. These 10 photos of Oregon have caught those moments perfectly, and will send shivers up your spine.
