I’m going to be in the Portland OR area late May for a photo tour. The itinerary is to visit coastal Oregon and the Redwoods for 5 days.
I'm planning to add a couple of days on at the end for solo exploring. I want to visit Mt Hood area one of the days. Looking for suggestions for a day trip from either Eugene or Portland that will get me some nice views with Mt Hood in the background. Foreground wildflowers would be ideal but not sure if the timing will be good for that. The main thing is that because I’ll be solo, and probably tired from a week of sunrises, I’m not wanting to do any hiking. Has to be a scenic drive with places to stop and shoot along the way and maybe someplace quaint to stop for lunch.
What are the other “must see” landscape or cityscape shooting spots in Portland area? I’m not interested in any street shooting.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and advice!
