Early on a Sunday morning, a local in the Transylvanian village of Aita Seaca/Szarazajta (pop. 900) stops at the pub for a beer before heading off to church. This area of Transylvania is known as Szekelyfold (Szekely Land), where many people are ethnically Hungarian, reflecting a time when Transylvania used to be part of the Austro-Hungarian empire.

In the realm of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, a majestic glacier reigns, its serrated peaks a testament to the artistry of nature.

Three of the six flamingo species in the world inhabit the area around the lake.

Solstice is the name of the new baby giraffe at the St. Louis Zoo. It was born in December, on winter solstice. I was hoping for a shot of baby and mom nuzzling.
