Off Rongelap Atoll, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, 1996
Photograph by Emory Kristof
A photographer enjoys the protection of his shark cage as many healthy and hungry gray reef sharks patrol the area. Scientists were sent to Rongelap Atoll to study the lingering effects of a nuclear mega-bomb detonated by the United States there in 1954. Despite the disturbing number of abnormal births and other radiogenic illnesses affecting the human population, life below the surface of Rongelap seemed to be quite healthy in 1996.

朗格拉普(Rongelap)珊瑚礁附近,马绍尔(Marshall ) 群岛,密克罗尼西亚(Micronesia),1996
一名摄影师享受的待在保护他的笼子里，而四周则是来回巡弋强壮且饥饿的灰礁鲨。
科学家们曾到朗格拉普珊瑚礁，研究美国1954年引爆核弹后给当地留下的难以消除的后遗。
但任凭新生儿变异的数量，和其他一些放射性疾病对当地居民的影响,
时至1996，在朗格拉普的水下，生命的迹象仿佛变得蛮健康了。

Neryungri, Siberia, Russia, 1989
Photograph by Steve Raymer
A motoball player kicks the ball over a field in Neryungri. Combining cycling, soccer, and polo, motoball features two teams of five players trying to push a 16-inch (40-centimeter) ball through the other's goal. Originating in France in the late 1920s, the sport caught on during the 1960s in the Soviet Union.

Atlantic Ocean off the Coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, 1997
Photograph by Flip Nicklin
About 235 miles (378 kilometers) east of Halifax, the ocean floor drops away. Nicknamed The Gully,
this place is more like a drowned Grand Canyon, measuring a dozen miles (19 kilometers) across and,
in places, a mile (1.6 kilometers) straight down to the bottom. These deep waters are home to the
immense—and immensely curious—bottlenose whales, whom scientists believe to be the deepest divers
of all ocean mammals.

新斯科舍(Nova Scotia)省沿岸的大西洋海面,加拿大,1997
大约在哈利法克斯(Halifax)以东235英里左右，云层压向洋面。
外号叫“沟”(The Gully)的海域，这地方其实更像是被淹没的“大峡谷”。
据估测，跨度达一“dozen”里（dozen miles，大约19公里）宽，而海底最低点到洋面的直线深度为一英里。
这里的深水成为了奇异瓶鼻鲸（bottlenose whales）广阔无边的理想家园。
而有些科学家则相信它们成为了潜的最深的海洋哺乳动物。

Two young sled dogs sleep off their meal of fresh, though toxic, Greenland shark. Hours after eating such a meal, dogs appear inebriated and have difficulty standing up thanks to the strong neurotoxins found in the shark's flesh.

两只雪橇狗狗在吃完他们带有毒性的新鲜餐点后睡蒙了。
食用过格林兰鲨后数小时内，狗狗们明显烂醉如泥。
并且想站起来都很困难，这些都是拜鲨鱼肉中大量的神经毒素所赐。

Maharajgunj, Nepal, 1977
Photograph by John Scofield
On the third day of Tihar, the Nepalese festival of lights celebrated every autumn, a family honors the sacred cow. Kept for milk and dung, cows personify Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, and are treated to fruit and grain on her day of honor. At midnight, Lakshmi circles the Earth to bless family money boxes and grain stores.

Bandhavgarh National Park, Madhya Pradesh, India, 1996
Photograph by Michael Nichols
In an image taken by a remotely operated 35-mm camera, a baby langur monkey clings to his mother's
chest in India's Bandhavgarh National Park. Photographer Michael Nichols set up the cameras to capture tigers in action, but the active langur monkeys tripped the infrared beam thousands of times a day, using up so many rolls of film that he had to adjust the timer to operate during "tiger time" —late afternoon, when tigers prepared for their nightly hunt.

本答瓦加尔(Bandhavgarh)国家公园,中央邦（Madhya Pradesh）,印度,1996
印度的本答瓦加尔国家公园，
在一张用长焦35毫米相机拍摄的相片中，一个长尾猴宝宝粘在母亲的胸前。
摄影师Michael Nichols架设摄影机是为了捕捉老虎行动的画面。
但是长尾猴在一天要触发相机的红外光束上千次。
由于胶卷大量的被用掉，那使他必须在每天的“老虎时间”设置定时器－也就是在接近傍晚的下午，当老虎们准备好它们晚上的狩猎时。
