Southern Utah/Northern AZ
Alaska. So far about the only area of Alaska that I haven't visited is east of the mountains and north of Denali. In other words, most of the state. That said, the parts that I have seen have been awesome.
The national parks in southern Utah. In fact, the whole southern half of the state -- even drives between the national parks are spectacular. Impressive rock formations, mountain scenery, wildflowers, wildlife, great hiking trails...
Here are a few shots.
Sunset, Capitol Reef
Fall colors, Boulder Mountain
Deer, Capitol Reef
Bighorn sheep, Zion
Wherever I find myself with a camera.

Hawaii. I know it's all psychological, but when you look around when in Hawaii, it's like the cameras in your eyes are set to "vivid"
Coming back to Indiana, was like traveling from Oz back to the sepia version of Kansas.
We've only been there 3 times, but will always be one of my favorite places to visit.
I’d say Iceland and Arizona. One day in Alaska would also be nice, but a second day would be redundant.

What?
I have not been to Alaska, but your comment is truly baffling.

???? I for one, would like to spend more than one day in Alaska. Hopefully my wife & I will get there on a cruise soon. I'm sure it would be impossible to see all the state has to offer if one spent a whole month in Alaska.
Vermont, I agree and, if you get there, don't miss Mary's outside Bristol. World-class food in an old farmhouse, about an hour or so from Shelburne Farms

I didn’t mean to baffle anyone. Let me explain. I went to Alaska hoping to shoot landscapes and wildlife. The landscapes I found were beautiful but beautiful with a high degree of redundancy. I now refer to my very expensive—I rented an RV and spent 6 weeks in the state—trip as “the mountains and clouds tour.” As for the wildlife, that involves paying for guided tours. I went there with the notion that bears and moose outnumbered people. They don’t. I never saw a bear or moose. I’ve talked with friends who loved Alaska. Me, not so much.
Tanzania & Kenya. I took 2600+ photos. I cannot wait to return.

I agree. I have visited Alaska twice, with more than a month in the state. It was not enough.
Asia... Asia!
I lived there for 6 years. Everywhere there is superb. From Singapore to the Himalayia, Japan, Australia. Thailand, China, Philippines.
Asia. And thousands of photos from everywhere there...
My favorite location is any cage or ring in which fighters perform. Simple but exciting pleasure.
