Guitar, Aspen, Colorado, 1999
Photograph by Joel Sartore
Rock-and-roll pioneer Chuck Berry plays a candy apple-red guitar at the Jazz Aspen Music Festival. Called the father of rock-and-roll, Berry is as revered for his iconic hits, such as "Johnny B. Goode," "Maybellene," and "Memphis," as he is for helping break the color barrier in the music world.

Turtle, French Polynesia, 1997
Photograph by David Doubilet
Like a baby bird embarking on its first flight, a just-hatched turtle, flippers outspread and eyes wide, swims just below the ocean's surface in the waters of French Polynesia. In addition to a dazzling variety of wildlife, including several marine turtle species, the archipelago's rich lagoons spawn a treasure available in few other places: black pearls.

Ha Pisga Gardens, Tel Aviv, Israel
Photograph by James Stanfield
The city of Tel Aviv, Israel, radiates from the Saint Pierre Church, nestled in the city's Ha Pisga Gardens. Formed in 1950 by the merging of the ancient port of Jaffa with the then-suburb of Tel Aviv, Israel's largest urban center is home to more than three million people, most of the country's industrial plants, and its only stock exchange.

Striped Boxfish, Tukangbesi Islands, Indonesia, 2005
Photograph by Tim Laman
A dizzying array of dots and squiggles decorates a striped boxfish (Ostracion solorensis) gliding by a coral reef near Indonesia's Tukangbesi Islands. Boxfish, also known as trunkfish or cowfish, are known for their distinctive boxy profiles and for the bonelike, six-sided plates that cover much of their bodies and protect them from predators.

Chimney Rock, Nebraska, 2000
Photograph by Jim Richardson
Twilight descends on Chimney Rock, a 325-foot (100-meter) geological formation in Nebraska's North Platte River valley. In the first half of the 19th century, scores of emigrants traveling west on the Oregon Trail passed this famous landmark, originally called "Elk Penis" by Native Americans before it was renamed by white settlers.

Food Market, Papeete, Tahiti, 1997
Photograph by Jodi Cobb
A shopper seeks relief from the heat in the cool recesses of an indoor fish stall at a food market in Papeete, Tahiti. On the northwest coast of Tahiti, Papeete is the capital of French Polynesia and one of the largest urban areas in the South Pacific. The city gained prominence as a whaling and trading center due to its accessible harbor, and it continues to attract transpacific tourist ships today.

Sea Star, Ireland, 2005
Photograph by Brian Skerry
There are some 2,000 species of sea stars, such as this striped invertebrate off Ireland's Atlantic coast, living in all the world's oceans. Sea stars are famous for their ability to regenerate limbs, and in some cases, entire bodies. They accomplish this by housing most or all of their vital organs in their arms.

Dominica, 1996
Photograph by Michael Melford
A rainbow arcs over trees blooming on a hillside in the West Indies island of Dominica. The country's interior can receive some 300 inches (760 centimeters) of rain each year, yielding hundreds of square miles of mountainous, densely forested wilderness, much of it protected as state land. The country's volcanic activity also yields natural gems, such as boiling pools, geysers, and black-sand beaches.

Cranes, Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, 1995
Photograph by Joel Sartore
Silhouetted against the sun, sandhill cranes glide over the wetlands of Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico. Every winter groups of sandhills migrate from Grays Lake National Wildlife Refuge in Idaho to the warmer climes of Bosque del Apache. Naturalists are concerned that diminishing wetlands are leading the water birds to overpopulate this refuge.

Garden of Gods, Lanai Island, Hawaii, 1997
Photograph by Jim Richardson
Thousands of years of erosion left this lunar-like landscape of boulders strewn across a canyon on Hawaii's Lanai Island, known as the Garden of the Gods. According to island legend, gods tending their earthly garden dropped the rocks from the sky. Visitors to the area have constructed rock cairns, a tradition many islanders disapprove of.
