Dalí Theater-Museum, Figueres, Spain, 2001

Photograph by Pablo Corral Vega

From the giant eggs to the geodesic dome, everything in the Theater-Museum in Figueres, Spain, was conceived or designed by the renowned surrealist painter Salvador Dalí. Opened in 1974, the site comprises three separate museums containing works spanning Dalí's 85-year career. There's even a crypt that houses the artist's grave.

Burj-al-Arab Hotel, Dubai, U.A.E., 2002

Photograph by Peter Essick

In bone-dry Dubai, luxury hotels like the Burj-al-Arab prove that water's no problem when money's no object. Flush in oil and cash, Persian gulf governments can afford to do what most water-scarce nations can't even image: desalinate seawater for almost all their freshwater needs.

Open Doorway, Puerto Rico, 2003

Photograph by Amy Toensing

An open doorway, tangled in vines, frames an idyllic scene of gently waving grasses in Puerto Rico. This small island boasts other unforgettable scenic views—particularly in the tropical rain forest reserve called El Yunque. Established by the king of Spain in 1876, it is one of the oldest existing reserves in the Western Hemisphere.

Scouts Lifting a Flag, Spencer, Iowa, 1997

Photograph by Randy Olson

A photo from Iowa, where these Boy Scouts lifted an American flag at the 1997 Clay County Fair, is an apt tribute on Election Day 2008. The official presidential-nominating process began here exactly 11 months ago with Iowa's first-in-the-nation caucuses. The winners? Democrat Barack Obama and Republican Mike Huckabee.

Crested Crane, Zaire, 1995

Photograph by Michael Nichols

Backlit by the setting sun, a crested crane forages in the African savanna. Also called grey-crowned cranes, these ostentatiously adorned birds are known for their equally flamboyant courtship dances, which involve, among other flourishes, head-bobbing, jumping, wing-flapping, and stick-tossing.

Tomb Paintings, Bahariya Oasis, Egypt, 2001

Photograph by Kenneth Garrett

Paintings adorn the walls of the mortuary complex of Zed-Khons-uef-ankh, who ruled Bahariya during Egypt's 26th dynasty (664-525 B.C.), a time when the isolated oases of the Western Desert were strategically important buffers against Libyan invaders. Archaeologists had been looking for his tomb since finding those of his relatives in 1938.

Fisherman, Mergui Archipelago, Myanmar (Burma), 2005

Photograph by Nicolas Reynard

A Moken fisherman works on his boat in the Andaman Sea, off the coast of Myanmar’s Mergui Archipelago. Members of this nomadic sea culture spend most of their lives in their boats, fishing and diving in the waters around the archipelago’s 800 islands. As their old saying goes, “The Moken are born, live, and die on their boats, and the umbilical cords of their children plunge into the sea.”

Reef Shrimp, Cuba, 2002

Photograph by David Doubilet

A tiny red shrimp plies the sandy sea bottom near the pristine coral reefs of Cuba. With the largest submerged shelf of all Caribbean islands, Cuba sustains astonishing marine biodiversity. Many reefs there remain nearly unscathed.

Human Skull, Peru, 2000

Photograph by Gordon Wiltsie

All that remains of the Peruvian cloud people, the Chachapoya, lie in muddy tombs such as this one on the eastern slopes of the Andes. The ancient culture, which built mountaintop fortresses and fiercely resisted the Inca, survived from the 9th to the 15th centuries. Many of the trinkets the Chachapoya buried with their dead have been lost to looters over the centuries.

Luquillo Beach, Puerto Rico, United States, 2003

Photograph by Amy Toensing

Under cloudy night skies, palm trees stand awash in green light on Luquillo Beach, Puerto Rico. This scenic view of an empty beach may be deceiving—more than four million people inhabit this island, which is only a hundred miles (160 kilometers) long and 35 miles (56 kilometers) wide.
