Hiroshima, Japan, 1994
Photograph by Jodi Cobb
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.

广岛,日本,1994
一对夫妇正在通过广岛公墓，这里安葬着世界上第一次核攻击的受害者。这次袭击由美国在1945年8月6号发动，这次袭击加速了二次大战终结进程，日本在9天后即宣布无条件投降。现在广岛是一个超现代化的城市，
还留着一些战争的疮疤。

Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, Georgia, 1980
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 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.

威奇托,堪萨斯州,1997年
在Sedgwick国家动物园，一只墨西哥灰狼与两只小狼依偎在一起。
曾几何时，灰狼是分布全球最广的哺乳动物。但是，在20世纪早期，不加限制的诱捕、毒杀、和猎杀这些高智商的食肉动物，已经将这个物种逼到了灭绝边缘。

The Gully, Off the Coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, 1997
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."

Photograph by David Alan Harvey
"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.

　　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。

Saudi Arabia, 1991
Photograph by Sisse Brimberg
Cormorants recover in a Saudi pool after the first gulf war. Iraqis retreating from Kuwait damaged nearly 800 oil wells, poisoning 300 miles (483 kilometers) of coast and 600 square miles (966 square kilometers) of the Persian Gulf, including the breeding grounds of sea-faring cormorants and grebes. Six months after the destruction, coastlines were still black and desolate, proving that recovery would be slow for the fragile ecosystem.

Hundreds of black-eyed susans bloom in St. Paul's Como Park Conservatory. Unlike its fraternal twin Minneapolis with its sleek skyscrapers, St. Paul has a lower, older, "brickier" profile and a quieter, self-effacing air, which has inspired both Mark Twain and F. Scott Fitzgerald to sing its praises.
