Popular Photography Travel Special - Places to Photograph by Peter Kolonia

The Best Top Travel Photographers reveal their favorite destinations in the world
Magazine Article in Popular Photography by Peter Kolonia
http://www.popphoto.com/

WHERE TO TAKE your camera next?
We asked more than two dozen professional travel photographers to tell us their favorite places int he world to shoot and why.  Their top 20 picks........

Montana: Flathead Reservation
A few miles northeast of Missoula, this Native American reservation is a favorite destination of Montanan Pam Voth.  Its diverse photo opporunities include annual pow-wows and rodeos, wildlife in the National Bison Range and Ninepipe Wildlife Refuge, the historic St. Ignatius Mission, and breathtaking mountain views.

"At Ninepipe, look for the wildlife off Highway 93 for shots of waterfowl," she advises.  At the National Bison Range, on any one of the driving loops, "look for elk, deer, coyotes, black bears, big horn sheep, pronghorn and, of course, bison.  Be prepared to photograph from the car as visitors are not allowed to leave their vechiles in most areas," though you can generally step out to set up a tripod.

Must-get shots: Landscapes along Red Sleep Mountain Drive.
The National Bison Range is 56.5 miles from the Mountain Lake Lodge
