HT1280 - Tourist Destinations

I know I'm odd man out when it comes to tourist destinations, but I avoid them like the plague. I know so many photographers who race off to the national parks and the hot tourist locations, but my experience has shown that in those places I most frequently either make cliche images or become creatively frustrated because of the crowds. Call me antisocial, but I'd much rather photograph down a dirt road that sees only two cars a day, and one of them mine.
