Aku sebenarnya tidaklah pandai sangat untuk menilai hasil seni fotografi ni.
Apa yang aku rasa cantik kadang tu bagi orang seni tak cantik.
Dan bila orang seni kata cantik, aku pula kata tak canti.
Apapun kita tengok best photo untuk bulan Mac 2009 yang dikeluarkan oleh pihak National Geographic
Like
curtains drawn across the landscape, the walls of the Toad River Valley
yield to untracked forests and pure lakes in northeastern British
Columbia. Years of compromise and careful planning defined the enormous
Muskwa-Kechika Management Area here, where competing interests—from
miners to outfitters, preservationists, and native peoples—coexist in
delicate balance.
Chicago
at night burns bright under blankets of clouds. Much of the glow
escapes from streetlamps, including clear, Victorian-style lamps good
for creating atmosphere but poor for harnessing today's extra-bright
bulbs.
A
starry night gleams above Owachomo Bridge in Utah's Natural Bridges
National Monument—named the first Dark Sky Park by the International
Dark-Sky Association (IDA). "Here you see something forgotten," says
ranger Scott Ryan, "and reconnect with the sky."
Still
on shaky ground, the Mexican gray wolf, an endangered subspecies, is
slowly increasing in number in Arizona and New Mexico, thanks to
captive breeding.
The
mountain's moods aren't all bad. Spring warmth draws crowds to New
England's Tuckerman Ravine, including thrill seekers who attempt to ski
a steep headwall. Others simply relax in the sun-washed glacial cirque
and bask in the presence of the peak.
Massive
beams of selenite dwarf human explorers in Mexico's Cave of Crystals,
deep below the Chihuahuan Desert. Formed over millennia, these crystals
are among the largest yet discovered on Earth.
Fattened
and then abandoned by mothers who leave to mate anew, weaned elephant
seal pups stick close together until ready for a first season at sea.
Two
stallions fight at a wild horse conservation center in South Dakota.
It's an equine echo of an ongoing struggle across the western United
States, where mustangs compete for space with ranching and energy
development.
Fevered
by hopes of striking it rich, illegal miners claw sacks of "money
stone"—gold ore—from the Pra River in Ghana. Their toil feeds the
world's hunger for gold, and leaves a ruined landscape in its wake.
In
early morning mist that rolls in from the coast, two brown bears tussle
like teenagers. "I was at this spot a year earlier and saw these bears
doing the same thing," says John Paczkowski, a biologist with the
Wildlife Conservation Society. "They sparred for about 40 minutes,
taking breaks to eat a few berries." Bears in the Kronotsky reserve
often encounter each other at salmon streams and seem to socialize more
here than in some other food-rich areas.
