  • Peter Menzel, self-portrait, at dawn in sleeping bag in seaside cave at Dinosaur Cove, Cape Otway, southern Australia. Dinosaur cove is the world's first mine developed specifically for paleontology - normally the scientists rely on commercial mining to make the excavations. The site is of particular interest as the fossils found date from about 100 million years ago, when Australia was much closer to the South Pole than today. MODEL RELEASED [1989]

  • (1992) Chris Slay darting right whales 40 miles south of Cape Sable Island from the 38-foot boat, "Lucky 7".  A bow and arrow are used to  "dart", take skin samples from, right whales for population management study through DNA analysis. Some blubber samples are taken with hollow-tipped arrows. Nova Scotia, Canada. DNA Fingerprinting. MODEL RELEASED.

  • Greenlandic icebergs and adjacent mountains on the eastern coast across the sound from Cape Hope catch the late-night sunlight. During the summer at Cap Hope, the sun never actually disappears below the horizon, though it does dip briefly behind the high hills that surround the village. (Supporting image from the project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.)

  • Australia's population is concentrated on the coasts, which means that seafood is a major part of most people's diets; especially shrimp and spiny lobster (shown here being harvested off Cape Otway, near Melbourne). The Molloys, of Brisbane, Australia, are an exception. Although John and Sean love seafood, Em is skeptical and Natalie can't abide it. Hungry Planet: What the World Eats (p. 32).

  • T-28 armor-plated aircraft used to fly through storm clouds to measure particle sizes and cloud electrification. Cape Canaveral (Kennedy Space Center), Florida. (1991).Lightning occurs when a large electrical charge builds up in a cloud, probably due to the friction of water and ice particles. The charge induces an opposite charge on the ground, and a few leader electrons travel to the ground. When one makes contact, there is a huge backflow of energy up the path of the electron. This produces a bright flash of light, and temperatures of up to 30,000 degrees Celsius.
