We get so caught up in our own little bubbles that sometimes we forget there's a whole world of wonder beyond our usual hometown haunts. So many gorgeous landscapes exist out there, just begging to be explored. Sure, some of these destinations are in far-off exotic lands, but there are also some pretty dang amazing places that you really need to visit right here in the U.S. From magical fairy forests to rocky ocean views, all of these places deserve to go on your bucket list. And even if you can't go, they make for some amazing pictures. Originally published...

Trick of nature creates spectacle
Words by Christine VanDyk Late at night, when the air is thick and darkness covers you like a blanket, tiny sparkles appear on the water. Out of the pitch black, schools of fish trace ribbons of light across the surface. Charles Darwin first noticed the strange occurrence in 1832 when the wake of his boat trailed a path of milky white through the ocean. In his journals he described how the mystical water gave off sparks when captured in a bottle. This light fantastic is bioluminescence, a glow created by dinoflagellates. When the tiny aquatic “fireflies” are disturbed by fish, waves, or even the ripple of a paddle, their fight-or-flight instinct kicks in to produce a blue-green shimmer. What makes it so special is that it is incredibly rare. Bioluminescence requires ideal conditions found only in a handful of places around the world, such as the Indian River Lagoon on the central-east coast of Florida. “Few people know about this,” Jessica Cichra of Wave of Wellness paddleboard tours, says. “Even those who have lived in Florida their entire lives may not be familiar, but once they’ve seen this spectacular display of nature, it stays with them forever.” Jessica describes the reaction of first-timers as having “childlike wonder.” “It’s fairy dust on water,” she says. “People cup the sparkling water in their hands and paint arcs across the lagoon. They giggle as glowing fish jump beside them and slap the surface with their paddles to make splatter paint.” Just an hour from Orlando, the Lagoon offers the ideal conditions for the “sea sparkle,” thanks to shallow water which stays relatively warm. For the best chance to see the glow, visit between July and September during a new moon and in a location with few man-made lights to disrupt the spectacle. “Even after years of doing this, it never gets old,” Jessica says. “Not only are you treated to the visual beauty of nature but to the euphoric feeling of a miracle as well. It’s magic every single time.” For the best experience of this spectacular light show, keep these tips in mind: Go with a group. Experienced guides know the best times to paddle, which areas produce the greatest glow, and how to avoid unwanted aquatic animals. Stay together. The currents can be swift, especially on open water, so stay close by the group and avoid being carried off by wind gusts. Paddle safely. Only strong swimmers and those comfortable in the dark should pursue this activity. It’s also helpful to have basic paddle skills. Use bug spray and wear long sleeves. Wear flip-flops or water shoes to protect your feet when approaching the landing. Dress for the water with moisture-wicking athletic gear. Fuel up! Most boards and kayaks have straps for drinking water, which helps you stay hydrated. You’ll also want snacks and liquids for after the float. Paddle possibilities. For those with small children or guests who are nervous about a stand-up paddleboard, ask for a kayak. The clear-bottomed ones are amazing on a night when the bio-lum is plentiful. Plan for bathroom breaks. Since most launch areas don’t have public restrooms, make sure to find a spot before your departure. Bring a towel and change of clothes. It makes the ride home much more enjoyable. Don’t bother with a camera, since photographs don’t do the bioluminescence justice.

Known as a 'red tide' by day, the microalgae Noctiluca scintillans, known as 'sea sparkle' emits a bioluminescent blue glow when disturbed at night. Over the last week, residents of Hobart, Tasmania, have been treated to a light show on the Derwent River, mostly around the South Arm Peninsula, as the dinoflagellate bloom has washed ashore. The bloom can be deadly to fish if it accumulates and gives off ammonia as the microalgae die.
When the sun goes down, this microalgae really shines.
People are always asking me to name my favorite: country, city, beach, etc. Over the course of my travels the last 15 or so years i have seen quite a few interesting things. But by far one of the most unique experiences took place during the two years we were living in Hyderabad, India, whe
Surrealism in digital art; the fount of inspiration and endless fascination by the viewers. Photo Manipulation Artist Okan Özel, allows his imagination to run free to come up with these interesting concepts. The charm and wonder that surrounds certain subjects like: the stars and the moon, have been with us since the dawn of humanity. Always looking up in amazement and puzzlement, as to what the universe is all about. That is why many artists have given way to their own fantasy views, of the cosmos beyond our world. The moon seems to reincarnate in many different iterations on this post. Reinventing its self in the eyes of this artist. Just look at how much has been written about the moon, both real and fictional. Its true power on us, our planet and the perceived one; this is why it has been the inspiration for so many fantastic stories. Dreams are one of the qualities that helps us deal with and offset the bad; expand our minds and horizons, cultivating in us more understanding and knowledge. Never let this precious resource go to waste, by not using it. Let your mind take the lead; you never know where its going to lead you... Ps. I gave the images some titles. The enchanted forest.

Bioluminescence is light produced by a chemical reaction within a living organism. It is a type of chemiluminescence. Let's see.
