Burmese Boy, Nanyung, Myanmar, 2003
Photograph by Maria Stenzel
A boy bathes in a mist-shrouded river in Nanyung, Myanmar (Burma). Despite rich natural resources, Myanmar remains impoverished and repressed, the result of military regimes that have ruled the nation for more than 40 years.

Coral Reef, Fiji, Indonesia, 2005
Photograph by Tim Laman
Without a strobe light to animate its riot of colors, this Fijian reef in 45 feet (14 meters) of water remains as a fish would see it. Red light, with its longer wavelengths, dissipates at about 30 feet (10 meters), leaving smoky blues and muted yellows to dominate.

Borobudur Temple, Java, Indonesia, 2001
Photograph by Alexandra Boulat
A woman walks among the bell-shaped spires of Indonesia's Borobudur—the world's largest Buddhist temple. Built in the jungles of Java during the eighth and ninth centuries A.D., this ancient pilgrimage site lay abandoned for centuries until it was rediscovered and restored in the early 1900s.

Aurora Borealis, Acadia National Park, Maine, 2005
Photograph by Michael Melford
Darkness settles over Jordan Pond in Maine's Acadia National Park as northern lights swirl above. "It was my last night in Acadia, and I was setting up for a long exposure of starlight in the night sky," recalls photographer Michael Melford, "and this brilliant red aurora appeared. I was in a panic to make sure I caught it."

Common Loons, Moose Lake, Wyoming, 1988
Photograph by Michael Quinton
Two common loons in checkered breeding plumage engage in a courtship ritual in Wyoming's Moose Lake. Loon pairs are generally monogamous and highly territorial, emitting their haunting yodels during the breeding season to ward off intruders and violently attacking any that come too close.

Ancient Sculpture, Angkor, Cambodia, 1968
Photograph by W. E. Garrett
Centuries of dormancy allowed the Cambodian jungle ample time to consume the work of Khmer artists in the sprawling Angkor temple complex. Built beginning in A.D. 800, Angkor was the capital of the Khmer kingdom until about A.D. 1430, when its leaders abandoned the site to establish a new capital at Phnom Penh.

Scorpion Fish, Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia, 1997
Photograph by David Doubilet
A scorpion fish attempts to hide in the sand in French Polynesia's Tuamotu Archipelago. Masters of disguise, scorpion fish use cryptic coloring and specialized appendages to help them hide from predators and surprise prey. What happens when its cover is blown? The fish uses its highly venomous dorsal spines in a lightning-quick attack.

Quote: | 法属波利尼西亚的土阿木土群岛,一条蝎子鱼企图将自己隐藏在沙里。蝎子鱼是善于伪装的大师。它的保护色和特殊的附器可以帮助它躲过天敌或者让它的猎物毫无防备。如果它的身份暴露了怎么办呢?它会用剧毒的背脊刺发起闪电般的攻击。 |

Saint Simeon Church, Syria, 1978
Photograph by James Stanfield
The isolated ruins of the Church of Saint Simeon stand beneath a turquoise sky in the Syrian desert. This sprawling complex, located on a hill 37 miles (60 kilometers) from the nearest city (Aleppo), was built between A.D. 476 and 491 to honor St. Simeon Stylites, the famed ascetic monk who spent nearly 40 years in prayer atop a 40-foot (12-meter) pillar. The remains of the pillar can still be seen in the church's courtyard.

Pines and Palm Trees, Big Cypress National Preserve, Florida, 1996
Photograph by Raymond Gehman
Sunset bathes Florida's Big Cypress National Preserve in an orange glow. The preserve, 720,000 acres (291,375 hectares) of primordial swamp on Florida's southwest coast, is home to the elusive Florida panther and an impressive diversity of birds, among other unique fauna and flora. But human development in and around the area threatens to send this fragile ecosystem into a tailspin.

Photograph by Tim Laman
Cabbage coral provides refuge to a bigeye fish in Great Astrolabe Reef off Fiji's Kadavu Island. More than 330 islands speckle Fijian waters, which hold nearly 4,000 square miles (10,350 square kilometers) of reef, a vital trove of marine biodiversity.
