Tiny Gomera is richly contoured with hills and valleys. Wrote one observer: "To make a 3-D map o***omera, first crumple a piece of paper into a ball. Next, tease the center into a high point. That's it." (Text adapted from and photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "The Quietest Place on Earth," September 2006, National Geographic Traveler magazine) 山村，哥麦那岛，加纳利群岛，2006 这个名为埃尔米瓜（Hermigua）的村子隐藏在哥麦那岛（罗德岛暨西班牙加纳利群岛一部分）东北部的一个山谷里。村子沿着山势呈阶梯状层层而下，其间点缀着棕榈树和香蕉树。小小的哥麦那被群山峻岭所环绕着，正如一位观察者描述的那样：为了制作一副拉.哥麦那的3D地图，首先把一张纸揉成一团，然后把中间挑出来形成一个制高点，这样就可以了。 图片为《国家地理杂志》2006年9月号的“地球上最宁静的地方”一文而拍摄，未刊发，图文据此文改编 翻译：cafe 修改：tomato  x0

June 24, 2008 Weddell Seals, Antarctica, 2006 Photograph by Maria Stenzel A mother Weddell seal and her calf swim beneath Antarctic ice. Weddell seals can dive as deep as 2,000 feet (610 meters), but frequently stay in the shallows to avoid predators such as sharks and orcas. (Photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Underworld: South Sandwich Islands," December 2006, National Geographic magazine) 韦德尔海豹，南极洲，2006 一只韦德尔母海豹和它的幼仔在南极结冰的海面下游弋。韦德尔海豹能潜入到水下2000英尺（610米），但是为了躲避诸如鲨鱼和逆戟鲸之类的食肉动物，它们常常在潜水海域活动。 图片为《国家地理杂志》2006年12月号的“黑夜传说：南桑德韦奇群岛”一文而拍摄，未刊发 翻译：tomato  x0

June 25, 2008 Twin Bolts o***htning, Grand Canyon, Arizona, 2006 Photograph by Michael Nichols Twin bolts o***htning reach for the depths of the Grand Canyon near Point Sublime. This scenic area on the canyon's North Rim is not as easily accessible as other lookouts. But for those willing to make the two-hour trip by 4WD vehicle, the vistas are among the best the park has to offer. (Text adapted from and photo shot on assignment for, "The Unexpected Canyon," January 2006, National Geographic magazine) 两道闪电，大峡谷，亚利桑那州，2006 两道闪电直插靠近坡恩特山峰的大峡谷里。在大峡谷南缘，这番景象是很难看到的。而对于那些自驾四轮越野车跋涉2小时来到这里的人们来说，这一路的景色可是大峡谷国家公园最棒的。 图片为《国家地理杂志》2006年1月号的“难以想象的大峡谷”一文而拍摄，未刊发，图文据此文改编 翻译：tomato  x0

June 26, 2008 Tribal Leaders, Saudi Arabia, 2003 Photograph by Reza Tribal leaders gather around a fire in the tent of a prominent sheik in Saudi Arabia. Such meetings, called majlis, are customary throughout the kingdom. They can be simple social gatherings or, if the host is powerful, an official audience, where a Bedouin camel herder asking help with a grazing issue might be followed by a billionaire property baron requesting a construction permit. (Text adapted from and photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Kingdom on Edge: Saudi Arabia," October 2003, National Geographic magazine) 部落首领，沙特阿拉伯，2003 沙特阿拉伯显赫的酋长帐篷里，几位部落首领聚集在火堆旁。这类会议（也叫做议会）是该王国上上下下的风俗惯例。部落首领聚集于此可以是单纯的社交集会，如果主办者有权有势，这种集会也可以变成官方觐见。比如一个亿万资产的大老板申请一处建筑用地，紧接着骑骆驼放牧的贝多因部落族人就会以放牧地占用的问题来此集会寻求解决之道。 图片为《国家地理杂志》2003年10月号的“边缘王国：沙特阿拉伯”一文而拍摄，未刊发，图文据此文改编 翻译：tomato  x0
