Karma Kandara Hotel on the cliffs of the southern most tip of Bali. Felt like you’re overlooking the edge of the world. (Random google photo for reference)
camping alone on Angel Island in San Francisco bay enjoying a day of psilocybin, gorgeous clouds, a guided trip meditation playlist from John Hopkins University, an epic sunset with hues of purple, and the most beautiful view of San Francisco at night i’ve ever seen 🕊️ ❤️
Middle of the Atlantic, under sail, pitch black except for the stars.
Hornacal (Argentina) and Grasslands National Park (Saskatchewan)
Joshua Tree NP post sunset on a No moon day.
Antarctic Peninsula. Awe inspiringly beautiful & peaceful
Dunquin, Ireland west of Dingle staring at the Blasket Islands. Sublime! ☘️
Florence, Italy Great Barrier Reef, Australia Davos, Switzerland
Too many dimensions in “stunning” Alaska glaciers are up there though
Natural: First snowfall of the season in Yellowstone National Park Urban: Prague, especially Old Town Ancient: Petra
Inside a rainforest. Where it’s deep and dark and you can hear life all around you but see almost none of it. The air is thick with humidity and barely any light makes it to the floor even in the peak of day because there are layers and layers of canopy over your head.
The Biobay in Puerto Rico. Went there like 10ths ago. Was truly shocked… it was exactly like this👇

Hiking the Teton Crest Trail, seeing these mountains turn red as the sun went down. This picture doesn't do it justice.
Hands down Cuzco. I took around 1,000 photos and none could come close to capturing the majesty.
So hard to pick one! Also additional attributes such as smell, sounds, history do affect the overall perception of a place, and it’s challenging to pick a solely visually stunning one. I’ll go with the most recent – Vale Furado beach in Portugal
Own imagination? But isn't that an axiomatic response, as reality is always individually processed? Or maybe common sense makes us think because the overlap of visual experience is almost exactly the same, perhaps that can be considered objective reality?
Top3 probably: Atacama desert in Chile (pic) Oahu Hawaii Masai Mara in Kenya
Switzerland ~ Piz Gloria (hotel on glacier) , South African game reserves ~ Kruger national park at sunset, and Colombia's coffee region 🏔️ views 🤌
Uluru Sonoran Desert Great Barrier Reef Acadia National Park Nara Clan Forest
One of them. This is on top of a volcanic mountain. It’s not fog, this is a cloud. https://glass.photo/thatalexpalmer/2zhx9Cb7cGjI0phnGuJdRK
If I had pics of Lac ‘Assal in Djibouti and some other locations in DJ on my phone I’d post those. But here is Pichincha, Ecuador with Toucans in trees (not visible).
love many many places in alaska but since we are choosing one, going to go with Denali w/ northern lights
Nature-wise probably Halong Bay
Honestly? Iowa. Flat, icy serenity. Nothing, anywhere. No earth or people. Only sky and the expanse.
There were purple night colors while we floated on a raft in a celestial river amongst the stars and darkness of space…
Path of the Gods in Italy as a "single place", New Zealand in terms of "compact stunningness diversity" - never seen so many different scenic spots so close to each other. Breakfast in the forest, lunch in the snow on a mountain peak, dinner on the beach is doable.
Annapurna Sanctuary https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annapurna_Sanctuary
with humans: delihi: saw a makeshift shanty town built around the legs of a billboard for a mobile phone. street filled with poor and hungry children to adults maimed to able. 20 years ago and dont think i'll forget it. without humans: angkor wat
12 apostles got there at about 6-7am, all i could hear were waves and all i could feel was the beauty of our planet
Walking into the lobby of the Gamboa Resort in Panama above the Chargres River valley for the first time literally took my breath away. There have been so many amazing places since, but I'll never forget that experience.
I have a few, but Moraine Lake in AB, Canada will always be on my list. Personally believe it’s more impressive than Lake Louise around the corner.
São Miguel, Açores. Not nearly my best photo from the island, but one I have available quickly from last summer.
Hard to pick one. Patagonia (Torres del Paine) Atacama Desert Banff Alaska Iceland All great. All different.
Mont Pelerin with Lake Geneva in front and the Alps right opposite
Non-GR candidates: - Koyasan (JP) - Iceland - Grand Canyon - Yosemite - Cape of Good Hope (SA)
Milford Sound - in New Zealand. Never have I seen over 1,000 waterfalls all within the Soan of an hour, while on a boat, surrounded by rock formations, karsts, and mountains.
The island of Ibiza during the pandemic. No tourists, no wild parties. Empty, peaceful beaches ❤️
I think for me it's a tie between the Alps in Tyrol, Austria and the rock formations in Sedona, Arizona.
Seeking “stunning places” a pathology. I’m real fun at parties too
An oasis up a cañon near San Carlos, Mexico. Don’t think any pictures I had still exist.
Beside all other places far from home, it is not hard to find a beautiful sunset along west coast beach.
Must be parts of Switzerland for me. Lauterbrunnen or Lugano.
Banff…or Florida - what can I say? I’m a sucker for oranges.
Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland. The most beautiful place in the world IMO
Not a place per se, but watching the total eclipse in Salem, Oregon in 2017(?). It brought chills down my spine.
Recently, Nusa Penida in Bali. the White Mountains in New Hampshire mid winter are pretty phenomenal
been fortunate to spend time in a lot of beautiful places but yosemite valley takes the cake imo
didn't visit so many places yet, but visited Nationalpark Hohetauern once in school, i somehow can remember one image which still impresses me today... maybe it's imagination, or something... also liked Krimmler Wasserfälle)
TIL not enough folks travel through the absolute beauties South America has to offer
Machu Picchu, Torres del Paine, many spots at Iceland, night and Sunrise in the desert...hard to choose one
