Not sure if this has been done before.
If you had the chance to go to any location in the world to take pictures, where would it be? Personally, it would be the Aircraft graveyard at Davis Monthan or Chernobyl, I think it would be amazing to visit somewhere that nature had "taken back"

Other than Chery'l Cole's bedroom...

Other than that a wildcard choice, the mountains of Pakistan, I follow a chap on Flickr, http://www.flickr.com/photos/atifsaeed/ who does some amazing landscape work out there.

Many, many places on my dream list.

I think the #1 has to be New Zealand though.

I think I'd need about ten years, though, so funding it could be a problem hehe

Bonneville for Speed Week would be awesome, or Pikes Peak or Nascar at Watkins Glen. I think they appeal to me because it's so different from what I've done before.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Each to their own though I suppose smile

For me, back to Iran, somewhere I've been many times but getting a visa these days is more trouble than it's worth. Similarly, the Kashmir region of India. For birds, Costa Rica, the Galapagos islands and the Falkland islands, three I've yet to to.

Antarctica. Frank Hurley's pictures from Shackleton's ill-fated Endurance expedition are incredible.

Nah, didn't do it for me! Nice pics yes but I'd rather go loads of other places.

In no particular order

China again
Tibet
South America again
Vietnam area
Iceland
India again

Should be able to recommend a decent (hopefully!) hotel after the Christmas holiday.

An abandoned soviet facility (somewhere in Asia) or an Antartic research station.

Hotel ! - don't hotel it - do it in a tent, explore and wake up in a different place each day. The only way to do it properly.

Said as I'm currently debating/planning to go back and drive the one bit of road we didn't drive a few years ago - as well as driving quite a few areas where there are no roads. smile
