　Sword Play, Pittsford, New York, 1998

Kodiak Brown Bear, Alaska, 1992
　　Photograph by George F. Mobley
　　On Kodiak nearly everyone fishes, including the island’s huge brown bears, which roam a renowned wildlife refuge. This subspecies—among the world’s largest bears—is unique to the Kodiak archipelago. Males may tower ten feet [three meters] and weigh 1,500 pounds [560 kilograms].

　　Tenju-An Temple, Kyoto, Japan, 1998
　　Photograph by Sam Abell
　　Garden consciousness is at the center of spiritual life in Kyoto. For a thousand years the Imperial Palace was situated here. Around it grew an array of temples, subtemples, shrines, schools, and detached palaces, each with its own gardens and often, it seemed, its own garden philosophy.
　　
　　—From the National Geographic book Seeing Gardens, 2000

　Misty Horses, Somerset, England, 1992
　　Photograph by Sam Abell
　　"’Uncheckt shadows of green brown and gray,’ poet John Clare wrote of the moors, land that ’never felt the rage of blundering plough.’ On Exmoor, hedge banks faintly trace the far hill. Supporters hope they won’t vanish over the horizon of time."
　　
　　—From "Britain’s Hedgerows," September 1993, National Geographic magazine

　Colossal Head, Mexico, 1939
　　Photograph by Richard H. Stewart
　　"First prize for the expedition’s shovels was this prehistoric ’Doughboy’: The Colossal Head, being measured by Matthew W. Stirling, leader of the National Geographic Society-Smithsonian Institution Expedition, is about 6 [1.8 meters] feet high and 18 [5.5 meters] feet in circumference. Carved from a single massive block of basalt, it is remarkable for its lifelike appearance entirely different from any other known American Indian sculpture. Its partly exposed ’helmet’ led the expedition to the Tres Zapotes area."
　　
　　—From "Discovering the New World’s Oldest Dated Work of Man," August 1939, National Geographic magazine

Formosa Push Car, Formosa, 1950
　　Photograph by J. Baylor Roberts
　　"’Many people get killed on this railroad?’ ’Not so many,’ Said the pushers. Such questions elicited fatalistic replies. On the 14-mile [22.5 kilometer] round trip to Chiaopanshan, this car bearing the [article’s] author and his companions jumped the track dozens of times, but never on one of these crude log bridges across mountain ravines. Push cars are used only in remote areas; Formosa’s populous west and north are served by good steam railroad lines; the east coast line is less dependable."
　　
　　—From "Poor Little Rich Land—Formosa," February 1950, National Geographic magazine

Jardin Majorelle, Marrakesh, Morocco, 1998
　　Photograph by Sam Abell
　　"Originally built by the Art Nouveau ceramist Louis Majorelle, the garden is the opposite of the austere Medersa [in Marrakesh]. In his bold plantings and brilliant colors, Majorelle seems to have taken strength from the desert itself, confidently bending its heat and light to his imaginative uses."

Flower Trade, California, 1999
　　Photograph by Sisse Brimberg
　　"Until the past decade cut-flower production worldwide has been carried on mostly as family business, the same farms cultivating the same flowers for generations. But Americans alone spend nearly 15 billion [U.S.] dollars a year on flowers and plants—about four times more than one generation ago—at 30,000 florists and 23,000 supermarkets. For the first time, flower trading has become a colossal global concern given to cutthroat competition and political battles. Flower buying by consumers has even come to involve faceless corporations where business is done over the internet."

　Zambezi River Raft, Zambia, 1996
　　Photograph by Chris Johns
　　"’Tourists overboard!’ One of the ferocious Class V rapids below Victoria Falls flips a raft; passengers are assured beforehand that hippos and crocodiles usually steer clear of fast water. A proposed dam would drown 15 miles [24 kilometers] of rapids."
　　
　　—From "Down the Zambezi," October 1997, National Geographic magazine

Fraser Island Zen Garden, Australia, 1995
　　Photograph by Sam Abell
　　"My Australian friend Kerry Trapnell and I called this secluded, silent place on Fraser Island the ’Zen Garden’ because of its almost empty, austere beauty.
　　
　　"We camped here several days trying to render, photographically, the power of the place. That power was in the skeletal trees, remnants of an ancient forest that had been buried centuries ago by shifting sand dunes. Over time the sands shifted again, revealing this scene. But just behind the trees an almost vertical dune was advancing to rebury them. The trees seemed to be elemental calligraphy spelling out that story."
