Sotol Blooms, Mexico, 1993
Photograph by Bruce Dale
Wiry bloom stalks from two sotol plants lean toward sunlight that streams through a break in the clouds in the Maderas del Carmen Protected Area. The mountainous park in Mexico's Coahuila State joins with Big Bend National Park on the U.S. side of the Rio Grande.
Sotol is a favorite snack of black bears, and its blooms attract swarms of flying insects including flies, bees, and butterflies. Juice from the stem is somewhat sweet and can be pressed and fermented to make the fiery liquor mescal de sotol.

龙舌兰花，墨西哥，1993
摄影者：Bruce Dale
在马德拉斯德卡门保护区，从云缝中透射出的阳光抛洒在两株斜立着的龙舌兰细长的花茎上。这座位于墨西哥科阿韦拉州的山野公园与位于格兰德河美国一侧的大弯国家公园相连。
龙舌兰是黑熊喜爱的食物，它的花可以引来成群的飞虫，如苍蝇，蜜蜂和蝴蝶。其茎部汁液微甜，经压榨发酵后，可制成烈性的麦斯卡尔龙舌兰酒。

Coral Heart, Hawaii Island, Hawaii, 1983
Photograph by Steve Raymer
Roads on Hawaii's Big Island are often flanked with miles of "Island graffiti," like this love note. Instead of spray paint though, bits of white coral harvested from local beaches are arranged into messages, which seem to glow against the island's black lava expanses.
But tourists beware: Removing the coral from beaches is illegal. And disturbing an already-posted message is considered rude and supposedly brings bad luck.

Skiers dot the slopes in this night view of the Happo-One Ski Resort in the Japan Alps' Hida Range near Tokyo, Japan.
Skiing was brought to Japan in 1911 when the imperial general staff asked the Austrian Army for help training ski troops. The officer dispatched by Vienna brought his own skis, equipped with modern bindings. Within four weeks, Japan's imperial armory in Tokyo had produced 30 perfect replicas of the bindings and delivered them to the country's first ski-infantry division.

Wildrose Canyon, California, 1998
Photograph by Len Jenshel
Abandoned charcoal kilns sit in Wildrose Canyon in Death Valley National Monument. The 25-feet-tall (7.6-meter-tall) beehive-shaped kilns were built in 1877 by the Modock Consolidated Mining Company to produce charcoal for a nearby silver-lead smelting plant. The furnaces were closed after only about a year when deteriorating ore quality forced the silver mines to shut down.
According to the National Park Service, the kilns, which still smell of smoke, held up to 42 cords of pinyon pine logs and could produce 2,000 bushels of charcoal per week. Due to their short usage time and quality construction, they are considered among the best surviving examples of such kilns in the western United States.

图中这些废弃的炭窑位于死谷国家纪念区的野玫瑰峡谷中。这些25英尺(7.6米)高的蜂窝状炭窑于1877年由莫道克附属矿业公司所建，主要为附近的银铅冶炼厂提供所需的木炭。由于矿石质量严重下降导致银矿厂倒闭，这些熔炉在投入使用仅一年左右时间后被迫关闭。
根据国家公园管理局的说法，这些还能闻出烟味的炭窑最多可容纳42考得(152立方米)的松树原木，每周可生产2000蒲式耳(72740立方米)的木炭。鉴于这些炭窑短暂的使用时间和建造质量，它们被认为是美国西部同类炭窑中保存最好的样本之一。

A woman applies a delicate grid of henna paste to a celebrant's hand already painted with lacy paisleys. Henna comes from the leaves of a shrub, Lawsonia inermis, that have been dried, ground to a powder, and mixed with water. The dye, which fades from the skin after a few days or weeks, is as popular today with Western trend-setters as it was centuries ago in ancient Egypt.

这名妇女正在她用来举行仪式的手上装饰一种带网格的指甲花，而这只手先前已经绘制了有涡纹图案的蕾丝。指甲花来源于一种名为Lawsonia inermis的灌木的叶子。把这种灌木的叶子晒干，磨成粉，然后混上水，最后抹在皮肤上，过几天甚至几周后，等颜色从皮肤上消退后就制成指甲花。
这种装饰早在几世纪前的古埃及已经盛行，直到今天仍然流行于西迁的居民之中。

杜乐丽花园原为皇后麦迪奇的私产，皇后在花园里建杜乐丽皇宫后，杜乐丽皇宫一直都是皇帝皇后的寝宫，也是皇帝大开宴席的地方，因此华丽不凡，后来凡尔赛皇宫落成，皇帝迁出，它一度冷落了，1798年法国大革命之后，巴黎人强制路易十六从凡尔赛皇宫住进杜乐丽皇宫，因此杜勒乐皇宫又有帝踪了，但杜勒丽皇宫也开始充满了的味道。
当时的杜乐丽皇宫已沦落为国家的议坛，皇帝已不能当家了，国家议会、革命委员会、元老会等等都在这里开会，直到拿破仑「雾月政变」（1799年11月9日），各种惊天动地的大事层出不穷，杜乐丽皇宫成了权谋家的决战场。
在拿破仑崛起之前，1792年8月10日一大早，路易十六在杜乐丽皇宫中接到消息，听说帝制被废，路易十六自知大难临头，于是带着全家跑向议会，议会原是杜乐丽皇宫的马房，可是中途被截，于是保皇的与倒皇的双方在杜勒丽皇宫展开战斗，倒皇的以大炮攻入杜勒丽皇宫前厅，双方都死了很多人，杜乐丽皇宫也半废了。可惜1871年五月人民公社的政争之火，就连这半废的杜乐丽皇宫也保不住了，如今它只是一个很长很大的花圃，往日的繁华已一无所有，见证了王权的殒落。
如今杜乐丽花园可见许多雕像，有「露天博物馆」之称。杜乐丽花园位于罗浮宫与协和广场之间，一边依傍塞纳河，坐在花园的大池塘边，或在露天咖啡座喝杯咖啡，是感受巴黎式悠闲的最佳体验，无怪乎被认为是巴黎最令人着迷的花园之一。
栗树、莱姆树以及五彩缤纷的花朵为杜乐丽花园带来静谧，青铜雕塑作品添加些庄严气氛，整体整齐清爽的景观设计则是典型法国花园的特色。
