Butterfly, Polynesia, 2003
Photograph by Tim Laman
Blue-and-white eyespots adorn the velvety black wings of a butterfly on a Polynesian island. The diffuse Pacific islands make up some 1,400 specks of land scattered across an expanse of ocean more than twice the size of the continental United States. Unique ecosystems here force animals to adapt into subspecies that are often endemic to a single island.

| Quote: | 蝴蝶 Butterfly, Polynesia, 2003
波利尼西亚岛上的一只蝴蝶，天鹅绒般的黑色翅膀上点缀着蓝白色的眼状斑点。该太平洋群岛由约1400个小岛组成，散布在两倍于美国大陆面积大小的浩瀚大洋上。这里独特的生态系统迫使动物进化为一些通常仅在一个单独岛屿中存在的地域性生物亚种。

Tribal Elder with Camels, Oman, 1992
Photograph by James Stanfield
A Bedouin tribal elder tends camels at nightfall in Sahamah, Oman. Arabian camels, also called dromedaries, have been domesticated for some 3,500 years. Valued as pack animals, they can carry large loads for up to 25 miles (40 kilometers) a day. They also have a number of special physical adaptations that help them thrive in desert conditions.

黄昏的阿曼，萨哈马，一位贝多因部落的老人正驱赶一只骆驼。阿拉伯骆驼，又为单峰骆驼，已经被驯养了3500年。作为牲畜类，它们一天可以运送重荷行走25英里（40千米）。它们自身的改变也适应了沙漠环境，才得以繁衍生存。 |

Brass Band, Romania, 1983
Photograph by James Stanfield
A sousaphone player and his bandmates add a folksy note to a wedding celebration in Putna, Romania. Located on migration routes on the Balkan Peninsula, Romania has been shaped by waves of passing peoples including Taters, Bulgarians, Ottomans, and Habsburgs, each of which left traces of their cultural traditions in the predominantly Eastern Orthodox country.

罗马尼亚，普特纳，大号手和他的乐队在为当地的一场婚礼庆典演奏风俗音乐。由于定居在被称为文明迁徙之路(火药桶）的巴尔干半岛，罗马尼亚人的文化受到一波波的过路者的影响很大。包括鞑靼人，保加利亚人，土耳其人。奥斯曼人，哈布斯堡人（德国人） ，都留下他们文化传统的痕迹。 |

Forest Chaser Dragonfly, Taiwan, 2006
Photograph by Jozsef Szentpeteri
A male forest chaser dragonfly displays its gossamer wings in Taiwan. Dragonflies look enough like wasps or stinging flies to instill trepidation among humans. They've been dubbed devil's darning needles, horse stingers, and finger cutters. In fact, these aerial acrobats are harmless, neither nuisance nor danger—unless you're a mosquito.

台湾一只雄性的森林猎者蜻蜓展示它丝网般的翅膀。这种蜻蜓像极了黄蜂，或是带着刺的飞到人群中让人害怕的家伙。人们给它们起了魔鬼蜻蜓，毒刺，或手指切割机等绰号。事实上，这些空中的杂技演员是无害的，不讨厌也不危险，除非你是一只蚊子。 |

除了拿一个酒杯在手，有很多方法可以让你在纳帕山谷小有所得。照片里，山地自行车手们骑行在澳特山开满野花的葡萄酒小径上，流连于这个加利福尼亚州的葡萄酒之乡。

View of Lagoon, Bora-Bora, French Polynesia, 1996
Photograph by Jodi Cobb
This blue-on-blue scene in a Bora-Bora lagoon is interrupted only by a pair of boats, a lone white seabird, and a line of frothy breakers in the distance. Found in French Polynesia 165 miles (265 kilometers) west of Tahiti, the island of Bora-Bora is what remains of an ancient sunken volcano.

Children, Sudan, 2003
Photograph by Randy Olson
Their future marred by conflicts over religion, ethnicity, and resources such as water, land, and oil, these two girls present an island of hope in the desolate landscape of Sudan. Since independence from Britain in 1956, Sudan’s northern leaders have fought to extend their power throughout the rebellious south, waging a civil war for all but 11 of the past 48 years.

虽然人们的未来在无尽的民族争端，宗教分争，水，土地和石油的争夺显得黑暗污浊，而在苏丹那荒凉的景色中的两个女孩却是孽海中的希望之岛。苏丹，自从1956从英国殖民统治下独立以来，北方的统治者一直在和南方的反叛者进行着内战，这场权利之争在过去的48年只中止过11年。 |

Attwater's Prairie Chick Hatchling, Texas, 2002
Photograph by Joel Sartore
Newly hatched at Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Glen Rose, Texas, this Attwater's prairie-chicken is part of a captive breeding program aimed at increasing the birds' numbers in the wild. These charismatic birds once numbered about a million along the Texas coastline, but overhunting and habitat loss have cut their wild population to just 50 or so. Captive breeding programs like this one are trying to reverse the trend.

Nun on Jersey Shore Boardwalk, New Jersey, 2004
Photograph by Amy Toensing
A nun enjoys an ice cream cone on a crowded stretch of boardwalk on the New Jersey shore. The Jersey shore has some 28 boardwalks and promenades in the 127 miles (204 kilometers) from Sandy Hook to Cape May.
Wrote one observer: "A shore town without a boardwalk is like an ice cream cone without sprinkles."
