  • The Emir's Gardens during the Kuwait oil well fires. The huge botanical desert retreat was slowly destroyed by the flames of burning rivers of oil from nearby wells that were torched by retreating Iraqis. I photographed the gradual destruction of this walled compound in March, May and July of 1991. This was one of the last small palm tree to succumb to the fires in July, 1991. More than 700 wells were set ablaze by retreating Iraqi troops creating the largest man-made environmental disaster in history.

  • (MODEL RELEASED IMAGE). After a five-hour sled ride from Cap Hope, the Madsens arrive at their destination, a frozen lake below a glacier. They spent most of the night ice fishing (at the end of May the sun does not set this far above the Arctic Circle)  for artic char. The next afternoon, after another 6 hours of fishing everyone gets to enjoy Emil's dinner: steamed arctic char with curry and rice in the canvas tent. (Supporting image from the project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.)

  • (MODEL RELEASED IMAGE). Emil and Erika Madsen's nephew Julian bites down on an Arctic char, half in jest, for the camera because the fish is large, but locals say that children often eat small fish raw. It's said to "tickle their bellies." After chopping holes in the ice with a pike, family members lower down hooks baited with seal fat. When the char bite, they yank them out of the hole with a practiced motion. (From a photographic gallery of fish images, in Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, p. 204).

  • Chaurino Perez Andrate, 17, offers a plate-sized sample of roasted Theraphosa leblondi, the world's largest tarantula in his village of Sejal, Venezuela. Chaurino stuns the leblondi by whacking it with a stick, gathers its legs, and lowers it onto the fire. The spider makes a final hiss as its insides heat up and it shoots out a yard-long spurt of hot juice. After it is roasted for about seven minutes, its charred hairs are rubbed away and the legs pulled off. When we crack them open, there's white meat.(Man Eating Bugs page 175)
