I have another- I think if you were to tell somebody who isn't from Washington that this picture is less than an hour and a half drive from Seattle, they wouldn't believe you. This is exactly around MP 93(93 miles from Safeco Field) on I-90 in the "transition zone." This is where the "trees stop" and where it turns into a semi-arid zone.
Here's another one from Texas people seem to think that the major cities in Texas except for Austin are flat but El Paso which has 600,000 people in the city has mountains.
Even the smaller cities have often have nice urban centers Bardstown has only 13k citizens. Bowling Green has 62k. Covington has 41k.
I also just don't think many people realize that Kentucky has this.
I wish I could do California too, but everyone knows the state too well. Everyone knows that CA has beaches, snowcapped mountains, Redwood forests that get heavy rains, farmlands in the Central Valley, and deserts in the southwest. I don't think there's anything to add really, except one poster included Solvang, a small Dutch-themed village near Santa Barbara. Probably the only unexpected thing I can think of.

A lot of people think that Eastern WA is a very arid and dry, and that is true, but because of the Columbia river and irrigation the cities in the area actually look fairly lush.
