Brian Skerry's photograph is something abstract, reminiscent of either islands in the ocean taken from a bird's eye view, or something very small, magnified many times under the lenses of a microscope. At least it seems so at first glance. In fact, it is nothing more than the eye of a southern whale.

This magical place is located in Japan on the island of Hokkaido. It is called "Blue Pond" and is one of the most famous resorts, loved by many tourists who gather here in spring, summer and autumn. However, since this pond freezes in winter, it is very deserted during this period. This photo was taken during the first snow, which covered the pond with a thin white blanket.

The great Indian Thar desert is always incredibly dry and hot. The sun is hot here mercilessly, so langur monkeys prefer to hide under the streams of a waterfall, which appears after fleeting but powerful torrential rains. Apart from humans, only these animals can adapt to life in such a harsh environment.

In the Australian spring, in September-November, Tasmania turns into one huge fragrant garden covered with colorful flower carpets. So, here, in Vinyard, the famous tulip festival takes place, and Cape Stolovy is famous for its magnificent tulip fields. One of these fields, which from a helicopter looks like a carpet skillfully woven from multi-colored ribbons, we see in the photograph of Anthony Crehan (Anthony Crehan).
