Is there a phone app which list scenic or interesting photo locations geographically?

It would be great to pull out my phone wherever I am and check out whether there is any interesting locations within 1-5 miles where I am actually standing? Do you think there is an app like that? Something made/tailored towards photographers.... Any ideas?

THANKS SO MUCH!

Does Google Earth show photos taken nearby?

You might check out Improve Photography's "rGPS" (Really Good Photo Spots) which uses your location to suggest ranked, nearby spots that have been crowd-sourced by its users. I used it on a recent trip to NYC and loved having the suggestions.

Canon 6D | 16-35mm f/2.8L II | 24-70mm f/2.8L II | 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II | 24-105mm f/4L IS | 35mm f/1.4L | 50mm f/1.4 | 2x III Extender
