                                                Photograph by Peter Essick A team of “swarm-bots” negotiates challenging terrain outside a laboratory in Brussels, Belgium. A 
red color ring tells others, “Grab me;” blue means “stay away.” Scientists study ant colonies, 
bird flocks, mammal herds, and fish schools to understand the simple genius of such animal swarms. 
Robots that mimic this complex group behavior
 

 
 
 
Photograph by Melissa Farlow A miniature horse stands in a field near Lexington, Kentucky, a bit of a curiosity in a region known 
more for its regal, fleet-footed thoroughbreds. There are some 500 thoroughbred horse farms in and 
around Lexington, where pastures, fed by the rich leavings of a long-vanished sea, are said to be 
among 

 
 
 Photograph by Diane Cook and Len Jenshel Crimson twilight gives a Martian air to Utah’s Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. With 
just one maintained trail in an area the size of Delaware, this monument is decidedly big and wild. 
Wrote one observer: “Almost everywhere, the benchlands lay sliced with canyons-deep wounds that 
millions of years of flowing 

 
 
 
 
Photograph by Frans Lanting A deep-blue sky sets off a mass of yellow wildflower blooms along California’s Big Sur coast. Each 
year more than three million visitors navigate the treacherous turns of Highway 1, drawn by the 
plunging gorges, fog-strewn coves, exploding surf, and tortuous geography-5,000-foot (1,524-meter) 
summits plummet abruptly to the ocean-of California’s dramatic 90-mile 

 
 
 
Photograph by Michael Nichols A wary tiger flashes a toothy snarl in this extreme close-up. Tigers are thought to have evolved in 
China more than a million years ago, prowling west toward the Caspian Sea, north to Siberia, and 
south across Indochina and Indonesia. Today, three of the original eight tiger subspecies are 
extinct, and hunting 

 
 Photograph by Michael S. Yamashita Bundled against the wind, a group of women picks cotton in China. The Asian nation is the world’s 
leading producer of cotton, with an output of 6.73 million tons per year. Farmers can’t keep up 
with the burgeoning textile industry, however, which uses about 13 million tons of cotton a year. 

 
 Photograph by Bill Hatcher Dark clouds roll over Paria Canyon-Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness in Utah. The 112,500-acre (45,527-
hectares) area in northern Arizona and southern Utah is known for its towering stone amphitheaters, 
sandstone arches, and the Vermillion Cliffs, all painted in dramatic streaks of red, pink, and 
orange, thanks to heavy iron deposits.

 
 Photograph by Brian Skerry A young harp seal tests the frigid waters in Canada’s Gulf of St. Lawrence. Once the object of a 
bitter controversy between sealers and animal-welfare groups, import restrictions on their pelts and 
Canadian laws protecting seal pups have helped populations of these charismatic sea mammals recover.
 

 
 
 
Photograph by Tim Laman Two pink anemonefish peek from the safety of their anemone home on a reef off Micronesia’s Kosrae 
Island. The island’s remoteness and a concerted effort by locals to preserve marine wildlife there 
endows Kosrae with some of the most pristine reefs on Earth.

 
 
 
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. (Text adapted from and photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, “Blood, Sweat, and Toil

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. 
 
 
 
 
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.
 
 
 
 
 
 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 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
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.
 
 

 
 
 
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 

 
 
 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 

 
 
 
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 

 
 
 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 

 
 
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,

Photograph by Paul Nicklen A mature female leopard seal makes a threatening gesture to protect her kill from another leopard seal that had appeared behind the photographer. 
“More frightening than the canines,” wrote the photographer, “was the deep jackhammer sound she let loose that rattled through

Photograph by Michael Nichols Rafters aboard a motorized pontoon boat get a thorough soaking on the rain-swollen Colorado River in Arizona’’s Grand Canyon National Park. Each year, some 22,000 visitors board rubber paddle rafts, oar-powered wooden dories, and luxury motorized rafts to ply this storied stretch of the Colorado’’s waters.
 

Photograph by David Doubilet A split shot shows a coral reef beneath a pearl workstation in French Polynesia’s Tuamotu Archipelago. The region, a 900-mile (1,450-kilometer) arc of 76 sparsely populated atolls and two islands, is one of the world’s primary producers of cultured black pearls.

 
 
Photograph by Michael Melford Sunset over the Beaufort Sea plunges Canada’s Yukon Territory into a crimson haze. More than 313,000 tourists make summer pilgrimages to the territory, one of North America’s last great wildernesses. Today tourism booms there, drawing adventurers to the frontier’s glaciated peaks, untouched wilderness, and abundant wildflowers and wildlife.

 
 
Photograph by David Doubilet A school of fish clusters near a reef in French Polynesia’s Tuamotu Archipelago. The extensive reefs of the Tuamotu harbor a bounty of exotic marine life and make the region one of the premier scuba diving sites in the world.

 
 
Photograph by Medford Taylor An autumn blush colors trees along a secluded stream in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. Part of the Appalachian Mountains, the Whites, as they’re called locally, are home to 6,300-foot (1,916-meter) Mount Washington, tallest mountain in Northeastern United States and record-holder for the fastest winds on Earth-231 miles an hour 

 
 
Photograph by Brian Skerry The oceanic whitetip, one of the most abundant sharks just three decades ago, is critically endangered in parts of its range because of relentless demand for its fins. But bans in the Bahamas on the export of shark parts and commercial long-line fishing have made the islands’ blue waters a veritable shark

 
 
 
 
Photograph by Alexandra Boulat A Berber woman shows her hand, stained dark with henna for a wedding in the Moroccan town of Taarart. 
There are about 25 million Berbers-also known as Amazigh-living in Morocco and Algeria. 
They trace their roots back thousands of years before the seventh century Arab conquest that brought Islam to the region’s

 
 
Photograph by Reza The sun sets on the first-century ruins of Nemrud Dagh, Turkey, millennia after it set on the ancient kingdom itself.
 Built by King Antiochus I in southeastern Turkey, 
the kingdom is one of the best preserved but least known ruins of the Late Hellenistic period. Its monuments are a story in stone depicting
 

 
Photograph by Peter Essick An argiope spider awaits prey in its ornate web in the French South Pacific territory of New Caledonia. The thick webbing is called stabilimentum, 
a structural flourish which some scientists think serves to make the webs more visible to birds, which might otherwise fly into them.
