Forest Park is a small city park featuring shaded trails, mature oaks, pine stands and a pond — great for intimate nature, macro and woodland landscape shots. Best light is early morning or late afternoon for warm side-light and mist over water; weekday mornings avoid locals and dog-walkers. Easy street parking at 4501 SW 20th Ave; trails are low-impact and accessible but bring insect repellent. No entry fee.
