Dressed for the Weather

1 Share

An ermine, also known as a stoat or short-tailed weasel, emerges in its springtime coat. In the winter, these animals do not hibernate, and their coat turns almost completely white. For centuries the ermine's winter pelt has been sought by furriers both for its warmth and its beauty.

A Jungle Down There

3 Shares

A hiker is dwarfed by the massive proportions of Hang Son Doong, the largest cave in the world, located in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in Vietnam. It is more than two miles long and, at some places, more than 600 feet high. Where the ceiling has collapsed, allowing sunlight to spill in, vegetation grows heartily.

Pride and Power

1 Share

To Your Shot member Bjorn Persson, the majestic pose struck by this lion in Tanzania's Serengeti National Park recalls a scene in a well-known movie. “When I saw this big male appearing on the top of the rock,” says Persson, “I immediately connected it to the Lion King scene, and I also felt it was one of the best photo opportunities I had ever had. The composition, the light, the background, and everything came together in what is probably my best picture ever. The pride and power of these magnificent creatures really shine through in its pose and expression.”

Persson's shot was recently featured in the Daily Dozen.

Gatekeeper

“As I biked about the Aran Islands in Ireland,” writes Danielle Lussier, who submitted this photo, “I came across this horse ambling about in front of these church ruins, just after the daily Irish drizzle. He finally struck a pose for me at the gate.”
