Tieton State, Rimrock, Washington, a perfect spot for exploring in the XCub, the one I've flown the most in this sim by far.
The forests in this sim are absolutely glorious. The coloring of each tree is proceduraly generated based on the aerial imagery, so there are many thousands of different hues of greens through the trees, rather than just a single color, and it picks up on all of the "veins" of darker hues weaving and spreading patterns throughout the lighter-colored trees (different soil types, different levels of exposure to moisture and sun, etc.).

A bit icy up here.
Expect banging, belching and an occasional manly fart as you roar down the runway at full power. (I have found that the engine can make similar noises)
Wait until you get to New Zealand. I just finished a short flight out of Queenstown into lake and mountain areas. Live weather actual time of day lighting were jaw dropping - dreamlike ambience. The natural world that this sim presents is the priceless treasure MS has created.

@dvj, is it runnning smoothly for you at 5120x1440 with the 2080 Super on Ultra? I have the same card but an older i5 7600k and in big cities it becomes a 2-5 fps Slideshow at Low to Mid Settings.

Unexpeditly smooth as silk. Really loads the RTX GPU and it gets hot. Load 100%, and 70C+. May need to liquid cool the GPU. The Ryzen 3900X is liquid cooled, 12 core, 24 thread. It seems to sleep through the whole thing. I assume the software is running multi-core. Also, make sure your card has the latest Nvidia Driver v452.06 just released for Flightsim. I have also eliminated a number of things. Like AI Aircraft, airport vehicles, People, Ships/Boats.... The landscapes are truly stunning. Still trying to figure out cameras/drone settings for best angles. This is shaping up to be a great tool for photography planning. I flew into some New Zealand areas that I have actually visited and was immediately emersed.

Have you guys noticed any inverted ice cream cone anomalies around? I was watching some streaming earlier, and noticed some East of KROA. What was strange was when some were approached, they went away. They looked like the old mesh points years ago.

Beautiful shots all! Thank you for sharing. I am glad to see some Orbx stuff creeping into the mix. I truly hope all of their inventory will port over, though admittedly, the stock stuff looks far better than my original FSX passion.
Looking forward to more screenshots.

Something different. Playing around in developer mode and found a new design from the Cessna factory. I'm guessing there will be a new ultralight in a few months.

Amazing shots of San Francisco, you can tell the data is a bit old as Candlestick Park is stlll there, its demolition of the stadium was completed in September 2015.
What is everyone using to take screen shots? In FSX and P3D I could press V and it would save, so far best I can do in MSFS is press the print screen button then paste into the Paint app.

I am serious, and stop calling me Shirley.
The Eagle looks great.
I'm using FRAPS. Not figured out how to in sim yet.

I'm using the Xbox Game Bar app. Super simple to use.

Some screenshots around default KMSP. Most of the real time airline traffic in the sim still has generic paint schemes, though the airline call signs are recognized and used in the ATC. Asobo mentioned in a Q&A last week that they have reached out to something like 26 of the world's largest airlines requesting permission to reproduce their liveries in the sim, and they are in the process of bringing those liveries to the sim for the AI traffic as they get permission to do so. There are already United Airlines liveries used by any of the real time United jets flying about the world in the sim.
Historic Fort Snelling in the bottom left.
Target makes their presence known to those flying in/out of the airport.

Over the Minnesota River and with the Fort Snelling Cemetery seen just above the aircraft.
