Tanzania, 1997
Photograph by Daniel R. Westergren
Twilight descends on Tanzania’s Mount Kilimanjaro. Although Kilimanjaro is located just 200 miles [322 kilometers] south of the equator, the combination of sun angle, thin atmosphere, and extreme elevation means that its upper slopes experience "summer every day and winter every night."

坦桑尼亚(东非),1997
晨光降临坦桑尼亚的乞力马扎罗山。虽然乞力马扎罗座落在赤道以南322公里的地方，强烈的日光直射，稀薄的空气，以及极高海拔，使得它山上可以体验：“
每一个白天都是夏天，每一个夜晚都是冬天”

Beirut, Lebanon, 2005
Photograph by Alexandra Avakian
Dressed in traditional Islamic abayas, two women search for a place to picnic near Beirut, Lebanon's famous Pigeon Rocks in 2005. Although Lebanon is about 60 percent Muslim, it also has large Christian and Druze populations, making it one of the most diverse countries in the Middle East.
Just over four miles (seven kilometers) from Beirut's city center, Israeli aircraft bombed Lebanon's international airport on July 13, 2006. The air strikes were in retaliation for the capture of two Israeli soldiers and the killing of eight more the day before in a cross-border raid by Hezbollah, a Shiite Muslim militant group based in Lebanon. Today, the conflict continues as Israel targets Hezbollah strongholds in Beirut and its suburbs and Hezbollah sends rockets deep into Israel.

贝鲁特,黎巴嫩,2005
两位身穿传统伊斯兰长袍的妇女在贝鲁特附近，一处叫鸽子岩的著名地方寻找野餐的地方。虽然黎巴嫩有六成左右的穆斯林，但也有大量的基督教徒和德鲁兹教派穆斯林，这使得它成为中东最为动荡的国家之一。
2006年7月13日，就在距贝鲁特市中心7公里远的地方，以色列空袭了黎巴嫩的国际机场。这次空袭的起因是，黎巴嫩真主党在边界上的一次袭击中，绑架了两名，并杀死了8名以色列士兵。真主党是一个以黎巴嫩为基地的什叶派穆斯林的好战组织。现在，这场冲突还在继续，以色列袭击着真主党在贝鲁特市区和市郊的基地，而真主党则在向以色列国内发射火箭。

Gunung Buda (White Mountains), Borneo, Malaysia, 1996
Photograph by Stephen Alvarez
Deep in uncharted depths of Borneo's Gunung Buda, two cavers warily eye a female huntsman spider protecting her egg sac. Though the dangers of mapping a previously unexplored cave far outweigh the bite of this spider, one caver admits, "their bite is bad, but nobody has died from one."

Baffin Island, Northwest Territories, Canada, 1998
Photograph by Gordon Wiltsie
Hidden on a spur of land ominously labeled Remote Peninsula, the sheer, blank wall of Great Sail Peak is reflected in a pool of icy water. With an elevation of 5,300 feet [1,615 meters], the massive granite wall took four experienced climbers three weeks to climb. Taking a break to wait out dangerous weather, the crew bolted their tents to the wall and made a hanging camp.

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.
