China, the Wild and Remote bits

"It was a muggy day, the sort where you feel your t-shirt sticking to you before you even realize it. We hired some local guides, who then hired some even more local guides to help show the way to the spire we wanted to ascend. Boy was it grueling! Jagged rocks, thorny bushes, all-fours most of the way. Sometimes the only thing to hold onto was a thorn bush or a glassy-evil-jaded rock. At the top, I looked down to see all kinds of grisly lacerations... but gathered my wits to get this photo!"

Crabbing a Ride

"The setting was very eerie," writes Nancy Leigh. "In the darkness [of] an overcast early morning, there was a large gathering of black juvenile iguanas on the rocks of Punta Espinoza on Fernandina Island in the Galápagos." While completely surrounded by iguanas, Leigh spotted a bright-red Sally Lightfoot crab climbing onto one of the lizards. "It was a delicate balance ... acting fast to capture the moment while respecting their space and not disturbing either animal," she says

Snowfall at Blue Pond, Japan

"When I arrived at the Blue Pond in Biei in Hokkaido, Japan, a lot of snow had fallen and the wind was blowing strongly," writes Haruka Iwasaki. "The moment the light that illuminates the pond was reflected in the snow, I witnessed a fantastic spectacle."
