New Orleans
New Orleans is a city that detoured and never quite returned to life. Boasting a lively jazz scene, delicious food, and a street festivity, it provides a sensory trip unlike any other. Still, take a stroll through the French Quarter, savor the aroma of fresh beignets, and let the vibrant spirit of the city carry you away.
Denali National Park
Denali is Alaska’s crown jewel, North America’s tallest peak. Home to grizzly bears, moose, and plenty more besides, this wild expanse of tundra and forest is as you’d imagine. Denali offers an adventure in the goon bare vastness of the great outdoors, whether you’re along on a backcountry trip or appreciating your view from a scenic course.
New York City
You don’t need to be told about New York City. The city has everything — from Times Square’s glittering lights to Central Park’s serine paths. Enjoy a Broadway show, visit world-class museums, or watch the people in this ever-bustling metropolis.
Big Sur
Anyone hankering for coastal beauty will be more than happy with Big Sur. It is a serene drive up and down California’s Highway 1. Monterey is often overlooked as a photography destination but stands out as an exceptionally welcoming big city. You can stop at McWay Falls or Bixby Bridge to get those iconic views and rejuvenate your spirit with the salty sea air.
Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone is a geothermal haven, the site of such great wonders as Old Faithful and the brightly colored Grand Prismatic Spring. The park’s densely forested areas of various types are as different from each other as the others are, creating a multitude of different scenarios for watching wildlife and outdoor adventures.
Savannah
The historic streets draped in Spanish moss and the relaxed Southern hospitality help Savannah charm. Populate in and stroll around the city’s squares, watch the antebellum architecture, and enjoy some homestyle Southern comfort in a charming town with the feeling of time being stopped.
Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park
Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park is a raw power of what nature is all about. See molten lava wash up with the sea, spawning steam clouds that play spirit. Characterized by its dramatically shaped terrains from Mauna Loa and Kilauea, the park provides a window to the Earth’s fiery heartbeat.
Antelope Canyon
Once you step into Antelope Canyon, you’ll think you’ve entered another dimension. Years of flowing water have shaped the swirling walls into grooves, and they glow in shades of orange, pink, and purple, making it an otherworldly experience that is a photographer’s dream.
