Z-Bar Ranch, Strong City, Kansas, 1995
Photograph by Raymond Gehman
Cattle enjoy grazing on the tall grass prairie, where places like the Z-Bar Ranch set fires every spring. The fires are swift and so is the recovery; within a month cattle feast on the new grass.

A small boathouse in a field of flowers reminds one of the song by Patti Page:
"If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air,
Quaint little villages here and there;
You're sure to fall in love with Old Cape Cod."

Statue of Liberty Monument, New York Harbor, 1985
Photograph by Robb Kendrick
"'Liberty Enlightening the World.'

So (Frédéric-Auguste) Bartholdi named his copper-skinned goddess, lifting a torch and stepping out of broken shackles. Her tablet, a meaningful symbol to his fellow Freemasons, represents the rule of law and is inscribed in Roman numerals July 4, 1776. To hold this 151-foot [46-meter] statue against the Atlantic gales, he called on the brilliant bridge engineer Alexandre Gustave Eiffel for the tallest iron support of its day."
(Text adapted from "Liberty Lifts Her Lamp Once More," July 1986, National Geographic magazine)
自由女神像，纽约港，1985
“自由照耀世界”
巴托尔迪，弗雷德里克·奥古斯特：(1834-1904,法国雕刻家)以此为他的“铜肤女神”命名，她高举着火把挣脱桎梏。她手上的写字板是互济会会员的一种象征符号，象征着法制，并用罗马数字记下了1776年7月4日。为了使这个46米高的雕像能够抵抗大西洋的风，他还请来了著名的桥梁工程师Alexandre Gustave Eiffel进行支持。

Tanzania, 1997

Hikers begin the long, grueling trek up Kilimanjaro, Africa抯 highest peak. Though many are excited by the challenge and adventure, their guides call out "polepole" (PO-lay-PO-lay), the Swahili word for "slowly." At elevations over 18,000 feet (5,486 meters), moving slowly is the only way to adjust to the lack of oxygen and avoid cerebral edema.

Southern France, date unknown
Photograph by Maynard Owen Williams
Rowboats beached along a shore are captured in an early color photographic process called Autochrome. Despite the long exposures and complex processing, this technique made National Geographic magazine one of the first periodicals to bloom with color photography. "ot too many people made Autochromes," says Society conservator Robin Siegel. "It was expensive and too much work."
(Text adapted from "Behind the Scenes: Autochromes in Living Color," June 2000, National Geographic magazine)

几艘小舟搁浅在海边沙滩上。这张相片由一种早期的叫"Autochrome(奥托克罗姆微粒彩屏干板)"的彩色相片技术取得。尽管需要长期曝光和复杂的处理过程，但这种技术使《国家地理》成为首先使用彩色相片的期刊之一。“不会有很多人使用Autochrome技术”，Robin Siegel说，"它这么昂贵这么繁琐”

near Truxton, Arizona, 1996
Photograph by Vincent J. Musi
A pesky sprig of wildflowers grows through the asphalt on the side of the old Route 66. The legendary road that stretched from Chicago to Los Angeles became a relic in 1984 when the last stretch of Interstate 40, the high-speed east-west highway, was completed just outside Williams, Arizona.

一棵恼人的野花穿透66号老路的沥青路肩茁壮生长。1984年，当最后一段东西高速--40号州际公路--就在亚利桑那Wiliams外郊贯通时，这条从chicago一路延伸至angeles的传奇大道也就成了一处遗迹。
