Scan www.flickr.com/groups/pdx/pool/ and see what catches your eye. A lot of the photos are mapped and people can tell you where the others are.

The places that zircon100 mentioned are all popular photography spots that people love to shoot at. Another very popular spot is the Eastbank Esplanade along the east bank of the Willamette River, which is good for downtown Portland skyline pictures in the morning and also at night.

Don't forget the iconic Multnomah Falls, super easy to access.
