I agree that many people take for granted where they live. There are many people in the US that travel abroad but have never explored our vast country. We have so much to see: Deserts, Rain Forest, Old and young mountain ranges, rivers etc.
I was fortunate to live in the American Rocky Mountains for 5 years in Montana and I saw many beautiful things. That said, I also lived in Michigan and saw many beautiful things. Like you say, it's about "really opening your eyes". Sometimes I forget that, but a camera certainly reminds me. Even if I just take photos inside my home, I see things that normally go unnoticed. Photography is a wonderful art form.
