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.

奥克弗诺基国家野生生物保护区,乔治亚州,1980
荷花在奥克弗诺基的茶色沼泽中盛开。这个沼泽在乔治亚州东南覆盖了大约有罗得岛
一半面积的区域。Okefenokee是一个英化的印第安语，意思是：“颤栗之地”

Wichita, Kansas, 1997
Photograph by Joel Sartore
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。

Photograph by Randy Olson
A teenager shoots some hoops for charity at the Tillamook County Fair in Oregon. Featuring a horse show, a hypnotist, and the squealing Pig-N-Ford Race, this county fair is just one of hundreds across the United States that mix family entertainment with agricultural competition.

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."
(Text from and photograph shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Bottlenose Whales," August 1998, National Geographic magazine)
The Gully,新斯科舍近海岸,加拿大,1997
同时而动，两只鲸鱼一起浮向水面呼吸，这是在北大西洋,清澈的天空和透明的大海。
虽然有些小群体会时有紧密的构成，研究却提出，巨齿槌鲸却只是在幼年时才会群结。
一个月后，这些鲸鱼将与新的好朋友同时而动。

Nha Trang, Vietnam, 1997
Photograph by Michael S. Yamashita
"Following peacetime rhythms, locals flock each morning to a beach in the city where the first U.S. servicemen sent to Vietnam arrived in 1952 to fix airplanes for French forces. Today the victorious communists are deferring to the economic know-how of the once capitalist south."
(Text and photograph from "Crossroads of Asia: South China Sea," December 1998, National Geographic magazine)
拿特朗、越南、1997
随着和平的节奏，当地人每天清晨聚集在城市的海滩上，这里曾是第一批赴越南的美国军人
抵达的地方，那是1952年，当时他们为法军修理飞机而前来的。现在，胜利的越共已经遵从了经济至上的规律。

A man rides an angry cow in Cape York Peninsula, a place of extremes that has been dubbed "The Land of Wait Awhile" by cattle drovers who are often ensnared in the region's thorny tangles.

红的附器来引诱鱼类。"

St. George's, Grenada, 1984
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.
(Text adapted from and photograph shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Marking Time in Grenada," November 1984, National Geographic magazine)
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。

Sitkoh Bay, Tongass National Forest, Alaska, 1998
Photograph by Michael Melford
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.

Sitkoh湾,Tongass国家森林,阿拉斯加,1998
潮水退后，一只海星暴露在Tongass国家森林的空气中。沿着其中央通道观光是相当受旅行者欢迎的。Tongass是世界上最大的恒温森林，但现在伐木工业已经开始要染手这里了。
