Now that I think about it, I could do with about 10 more options :) - John Worthington

I have yet to discover someone who: 1. is passionate about photography 2. lives near me *AND* 3. wouldn't mind teaching me to share their passion. When I do, I think I can revisit this post. Liking to be able to do so. - Michael J Cohen

Greek Islands, Paris, Rome - Sean Alexander

Tokyo & Africa. I have nice shots from Cuba, is a magic place to take photos. - Nicolas Caitan

Christmas Island, New Zealand and Antarctica. Headed to Bodie, Mono Lake and Yosemite today... - Jauder Ho

Vietnam (I went without a DLSR and regretted it) and Africa....can't decide on my 3rd - Benjamin Golub

Giza (egypt), China, Japan. I've shot in Giza, but it was about 20 years ago. Would love to go back there with more knowledge of photography. - jerry

Aleppo (Syria) , Toscana (Sienna), Guadeloupe (F.W.I.)...and many many more - Olivier

Australia's Great Barrier Reef (once I get that underwater housing), Mardi Gras, and perhaps Egypt for the third. - Becca

Cartagena (Colombia), Portugal (All over the place), Japan. Travel photography is my favorite kind of photography. - Juan Pablo González

Portugal for sure! - John Worthington

India, Japan, Brazil. - Melissa

@Olivier: I completely forgot about Syria. Yeah, I'd love to have full access to shoot Petra - jerry

Yemen, Kashmir, Deserts of Arabia - imran

This is a really difficult question, but one that'll be a lot of fun to mull over all day. - Dave Roth

Cambodia, Peru, Greece - BeeLing

New Zealand, New Zealand, New Zealand :-D - Kol Tregaskes

@jerry Petra is in Jordan. Amazing to walk down the Siq and have the treasury appear from nowhere. I have traveled to lots of the places mentioned and my biggest regret is not doing more people shots. They have so much character but I don't have the confidence to photograph, especially in a Muslim country. - CJPhoto

Chernobyl (city), the abandoned V-2 rocket base at Peenemünde, and the reefs around Rotan. - Chris Baskind

Ditto Thomas Hawk. My answer exactly. - Ayşe E.

Prague, Istanbul, Utah canyonlands - Jody C

"A HUGE hailstorm has turned parts of central Kenya white, thrilling residents most of whom had never experienced such conditions.

"FIRST tests of Google's "faster, safer" browser have uncovered embarrassing glitches, which prevent some of the company's own services from loading.

Blogger Arrested Over New Guns N' Roses Songs

"POLICE have arrested a blogger for posting songs from the yet-to-be released Guns N' Roses album Chinese Democracy online without permission. Kevin Cogill, who uses the online name "Skwerl", has been charged with violating copyright laws after he allegedly put nine of the band's unreleased songs on his website for visitors to listen to." - John Worthington via Bookmarklet

Axl Rose has... hahaha, I can't possibly start a sentence with Axl Rose :) - John Worthington

Seem like the correct response for putting someones very valuable intellectual property up on the web for free. Even worse since the songs weren't even released yet. This guy will probably be liable to both G&R as well as their label for lost revenue. Could be significant depending on how many times the songs were downloaded. - Jeff P. Henderson

Just a thought: if they were unreleased, then they were unpublished. Theoretically it means that they weren't yet owned by the record label. That means the copyright hadn't been issued yet? A technicality, perhaps, and perhaps erroneous, but this might all fall into the bloggers favor after all. - Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins

This is one time where I have to side with the authorities. He was posting intellectual property with the permission of the owner. And what's worse, he was posting crap from Chinese Democracy. He should have been executed on the spot for helping spread that crap. - jerry

Yikes! Sweet Child O' Mine! - Thomas Hawk

There will actually be democracy in China by the time Chinese Democracy is released! - Chris Rivait

He should be happy it was leaked, thats about the best promotion he'll get - orionstarr

there was a great thing on leaked music on the wnyc soundcheck podcast - Cecil Sandus

@Mark, generally if you are signed to a label, all work you do belongs to them automatically. Copyright is automatic upon creation of works. Registration of a copyright provides the additional ability to recover legal fees. I'm sure any record label worth it's salt would have this taken care of before the release of new work. Probably no benefit to the bolgger. - Jeff P. Henderson
