Another Roger Dean kind of place.

Seoraksan

This image in particular is very evocative. I can't help but imagine dragons nesting in these peaks....

Richat Structure

The Richat Structure in the Sahara Desert of Mauritania is a nearly circular formation almost 50 kilometers in diameter (30 miles). It was once thought to be an impact crater, but is now thought by some to have been caused by uplifted rock sculpted by erosion. For those who care, it lies pretty close to 19.5 degrees latitude. Nevertheless, the Richat Structure remains a mystery.

Val Verzasca

    Val Verzasca, Switzerland

Ófærufoss

Bandiagara - Land of the Dogon

Bandiagara, in Mali, is the home of the Dogon. The escarpment has its own waterfall, cliff dwellings, and meandering paths into the oasis-like valleys. It's hard to imagine a place that combines more beautiful features in one scene than Bandiagara.

Kumano Kodu

The Kumano Kodu is an ancient footpath between shrines in Japan that wanders through beautiful forests and mountains, and was paved with stones and logs to keep the rain from washing away the trail.
