Submitted by Rik Littlefield... This has got to be my favorite spot of the last couple years. Conrad Basin is in the Goat Rocks Wilderness, in the southern Cascade Mountains of Washington State. (See Google map .) It takes me about 12 hours to get there, 2-1/2 of them by car and the rest by foot. B...

Submitted by Ken Ramos... If there is any place, at the moment, that I love to go; it is for a drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Running from Georgia to Virginia, where it turns into the Skyline Drive, one can spend literially days exploring, photographing (macro =D>) and visiting the various sit...

Submitted by Mike Broderick I've only been there once, for about a week last January, but it was a very special experience. You need honest-to-goodness cold weather gear for the trip, because it is BRUTAL. The temperature was in the teens for most of our trip, and it got up to the twenties at one p...

Submitted by Mike Broderick... The microscopists might have got by without hearing about this place, but I'm sure anyone with even a toe dipped into classic nature photography has at least heard of the place, and probably seen more than a few photographs from it. I'm only mildly interested in birds...

Submitted by Charles Krebs... A little hesitant about posting this spot for two reasons... I've only been there once (2005), and this spring (2006) saw many birds arrive but leave early.

It features some noteworthy "sea-stacks", and tide pools can be explored with a good low tide. While most people naturally "focus" tow...

I visited many beautiful places on my way, but this one was truly magical, even though lighting was not very good (it was a cloudy day.) http://www.pirx.com/gallery/albums/antelope/ante23.jpg http://www.pirx.co...

Submitted by Charles Krebs... What can you say, it's just a great place! My favorite time is the fall. It's an easy location to "work" as well. It can be as strenuous or easy as you wish. No lack of picture opportunities either way. The town of Springdale makes a good "base" if you are not into cam...

Submitted by Sue Alden... My favorite place is Bombay Hook, De located just north of Dover, DE. This is a National Wildlife Refuge and a great place for avian photography, but also offers a variety of subjects. http://www.saalden.com/anapage/posting/bh3.jpg From birds to turtles to dragons, I even ...

Submitted by Ken Ramos http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/2_Curtis_Creek_1_1.jpg Of all the places in Western North Carolina that I could frequent, this has to be one of the most. Probably because it is close to home, about twenty five miles north of my home and just off I-40 East. Exit ...

Submitted by twebster... Hi y'all, :D Since the "Favorite Locations Forum" was my idea, allow me to make the first post. :D I have recently "discovered" the Gilbert Water Ranch and the Riparian Institute located in Gilbert, Arizona, USA. If you are into bird photography and dragonfly photography th...

It's pretty near identical to the way it's been done for years with film SLR's. The camera is moun...
