A diver films a Greenland shark beneath the Arctic ice.
"'It rose up and hovered near me in an almost vertical position...When I saw its mouth starting to open, I got concerned.' But there is no record of Greenland sharks ever attacking humans, and a nudge with a strobe light sent this one into retreat."

Near Lovozero, Siberia, USSR, 1980
Photograph by Dean Conger
"Memory stakes a trail in a roadless land as a Saami, or Lapp, herder heads for his reindeer herd 30 miles [48 kilometers] from Lovozero. Since the 1930s, reindeer raising, the primary occupation of many Soviet Arctic people, has been managed mostly by state and collective farms, but animals forage on the tundra, surviving largely on lichens and mosses."
(Text and photograph from "People of the Long Spring," February 1983, National Geographic magazine)
Lovozero附近，西伯利亚,苏联,1980
当牧羊的Saami人或称Lapp人动身前往Lovozero小镇30英里(合48公里)以外的驯鹿群的时候，在无路可走的大地上，他们对道路的记忆只能凭借地上走过的痕迹。自从20世纪30年代以来，驯鹿养殖这项许多苏联北极圈的居民从事的重要职业，通常由国家和集体农场来管理，而驯鹿在冻土
地带上寻食，主要以地衣和苔藓为生。

Holiday lights in a store window struggle to bring cheer to the winter gloom. In Denmark, Christmas is the last outpost on the long, grim trek toward spring. The North Atlantic winter offers not much more than all-day rain and dark gray skies at noon. Welcome to the birthplace of existentialism!

"Etched in a monumental landscape, the Monastery, like Petra itself, is anchored in the cliffs from which it was carved. Though rattled by earthquakes through the centuries, many of Petra's buildings stood fast, even as the city declined and storms of windblown sand concealed its glory for another age."

"ot even a swarm of flies disturbs a cheetah's after-dinner catnap. Most delicate of the big cats, cheetahs choose to flee rather than fight when confronted with danger. 'People are their biggest problem,' says [conservationist] Laurie Marker. 'Whether cheetahs thrive in the wild or are lost in our lifetime is ultimately up to us.'"

"Lesser snow geese and greater sandhill cranes mingle in November at Bosque del Apache NWR in New Mexico. The sandhills, along with some 30 whooping cranes, migrate from Grays Lake NWR in Idaho. Both whoopers and snow geese have white plumage with black wingtips, so the hunting season demands strict control. Goose hunters must pass a recognition test to shoot on the refuge, but need only a license and duck stamp nearby."

During the first billion years of existence, Mars was an active and violent place with volcanic eruptions, meteor showers, and huge floods cutting channels across its surface. Since then, lava and wind have continued to mold its shape into strange and beautiful formations, like this dune field in Herschel Basin which appears to be cemented in place.
