Old Town, SydneyOld Town Sydney, Australia, at very early dawn. This was shot from the roof of a hotel. I used a fisheye lens to capture from the street below the view of the harbor with the famous Sydney Opera House.

Polar Bear and Cub, SvalbardAs we watched from our Zodiac, this polar bear gave her cub a lift as she swam across the fjord, shaking herself dry after emerging from the water with her cub hanging on. Polar bear cubs have been known to occasionally ride on the backs of their mothers as they swim together in Arctic waters, possibly to reduce exposure to cold.
Hanuman Langur, IndiaTracking tigers in Ranthambore Forest, I descended a dry grey valley. On the opposite side of the valley I discovered some lovely red blooming trees. I prepared my 600m tele on the tripod, and as I was composing the image I suddenly saw Hanuman langurs, which were treating themselves to the sweet red blossoms.
Hang En Cave, VietnamGoing underground, expedition members enter Hang En, a cave tunneled out by the Rao Thuong River. Dwindling to a series of ponds during the dry months, the river can rise almost 300 feet (91 meters) during the flood season, covering the rocks where cavers stand.

Machu PicchuPerched high in the Peruvian Andes, the royal retreat of Machu Picchu testifies to the Inca's masterful building skills with its precision-cut stones and perfectly placed cascades of terraces.
Cowboy, Cabo San LucasThis photo of a cowboy in Cabo San Lucas was taken at the most amazing sunset; the air was extremely heavy, and the contrast of the lighting was unbelievable. I saw this cowboy coming straight at me and I knew at that point in time how to describe the beauty of Cabo San Lucas. It was not about the magnificent ocean, the calving whales, or the seals that swam from Lovers Cove to Divorce Beach. Cabo was about the beauty of the people that made this place simply remarkable.

Diprotodon Tracks, AustraliaOn a drying lake bed in Victoria, a farmer in 2007 alerted scientists to a major find: well-preserved tracks of a Diprotodon. The slow-moving behemoth had been crossing a volcanic plain 100,000 years ago, when megafauna still walked tall.

Mount Merapi, IndonesiaOn this day the sun rose directly behind the active Merapi, ”Fire Mountain,” highlighting the volcanic smoke which steadily streamed across the horizon from its uppermost region. Facing the mountain in the image is a sacred and latticed stupa of Borobudur Monument’s first upper terrace and an endearing statue of Buddha. Thick fog filled the forest and villages below, adding interesting artistic elements to the image.

Green Anemone, Vancouver IslandDiving Browning Passage at the northern end of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, is one of the most spectacular experiences in the Pacific Northwest. The sheer diversity and abundance of life is astonishing. At the end of one dive, ascending into rough and choppy surface conditions, I took this lucky shot of a green anemone as a wave washed over it.
