Finally a clear day in Portland and time to go take photos. On a fast whim, I decided to head to a spot I've had my eye on for quite some time. The light was pretty fantastic with sunset behind me casting orange and pink into the sky and a nice band of venus through Mount Hood reflecting in the Columbia River. I first spotted this location back in November when I first visited Portland. I can see myself visiting often!
