When the tide goes out, a starfish is exposed to the elements in Tongass National Forest. A popular spot for tourists along the Inside Passage, the Tongass is the largest remaining temperate forest in the world—even as the logging industry lobbies for greater access to it.

"Giving the devil his due with greased bodies and dead snakes, Carnival revelers play 'jab-jab,' patois for Satan. The Evil One must be appeased before one can gain entry to heaven, says the street-theater script—bizarre, but all in fun."
Grenada's Carnival is celebrated in mid-August to avoid a conflict with the anniversary of their independence from Great Britain on February 7. This year, revelers take to the streets on August 14 and 15.

圣乔治、格林纳达、1984
　　街头剧《稀奇古怪》的剧本上写着：“狂欢者跳着jab-jab舞，把烂醉的躯体和呆滞的扭动献给魔鬼，他们觉得这是撒旦应得的。jab在方言里就是撒旦的意思。你只有安抚了撒旦后，才有机会进入天堂。”当然，这只是为了搏君一笑。
　　为避免与2月7日摆脱大不列颠的独立纪念日相冲突，格拉纳达狂欢节设在每年8月中旬举行。今年，狂欢的人群将在8月14和15日两天涌向街头。

Photograph by Flip Nicklin
"Symmetry in motion, two whales surface and exhale in union, emerging to the rarest of North Atlantic days—a clear sky and a glassy sea. Although small groups often maneuver in tight formation for a short time...research suggests that the social bonds of most bottlenose whales are as transient as a teenager's. A month from now these whales will be swimming in sync with new best friends."

A Mexican gray wolf snuggles with two pups at the Sedgwick County Zoo. At one time, gray wolves were among the most widely distributed mammals on Earth. However, by the early 1900s, unchecked trapping, poisoning, and hunting of these highly intelligent predators drove the species to the brink of extinction.

Photograph by Richard Perry
Water lilies flourish in the tea-tinted bogs of Okefenokee Swamp. The swamp covers an area in southeast Georgia that is about half the size of Rhode Island. Okefenokee is an Anglicization of an American Indian word meaning "trembling earth" and describes the soft, spongy peat moss that gives an unstable feel to the swamp's drier areas.

A couple walks through a Hiroshima cemetery for victims of the world's first atom bomb attack. Detonated by the United States on August 6, 1945, the A-bomb fulfilled its promise of hastening the end of World War II when Japan surrendered nine days later. Today Hiroshima is an ultra-modern city with few battle scars, except for those in the memories of the hibakusha—bomb survivors.

Vestmannaeyjar, Iceland, 1998
Photograph by Sisse Brimberg
During the first weekend of August, the residents of Vestmannaeyjar celebrate Iceland's first constitution in bold Viking style—with fire, song, and plenty of drink. Democracy took root on this rocky island in 930 A.D., when the Althing, predecessor to today's parliament, first met. "Icelanders have no other king than the laws," wrote an 11th-century cleric, and the proud descendants of the country's original settlers remain fiercely independent.
