Rose Island was used as a filming location for the 1965 James Bond adventure "Thunderball", including the explosive destruction of the Disco Volante.Desktop Version

Polar Bear Week
Polar Bear Week
These polar bears are gathering along the shores of Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada, waiting for sea ice to form so they can head back out to hunt seals. That annual spectacle inspired Polar Bear Week, observed during the first week of November, a celebration of the Arctic"s largest land predator. Polar bears are powerful swimmers, expert hunters and remarkably adapted to life in one of Earth"s harshest environments. Yet shrinking sea ice means many spend longer on land, making it harder to find food and raising the risk of encounters with people.Desktop Version

Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia
Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia
Water seems to be everywhere at Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia. Sixteen terraced lakes are linked by a network of waterfalls, streams and cascades that wind through forested limestone canyons.

Established in 1949, Plitvice Lakes is Croatia"s oldest and largest national park. The landscape is famous for its tufa barriers, natural limestone formations created as mineral-rich water deposits calcium carbonate over centuries. These barriers continue to grow and change, gradually transforming the park"s waterfalls and lakes.Desktop Version
International Geodiversity Day
International Geodiversity Day
What if a mountain range could show you its geological history in stripes? At Zhangye National Geopark in China, the rocks do exactly that. Ridges roll across the landscape in bands of red, orange, yellow, brown and other earthy tones. Known as the Danxia landform, this striking landscape was shaped by layers of sedimentary rock deposited over geological time. Tectonic forces later lifted and folded the rocks, while weathering and erosion carved them into ridges, cliffs, gullies and peaks.Desktop Version

View of the Sanguinaires Islands from Corsica, France
Just off the coast of Corsica, France, the Sanguinaires Islands rise from the Mediterranean as a small archipelago of four rugged, rocky islands. Viewed from a historic watchtower, they sit at the entrance to the Gulf of Ajaccio. Steep cliffs, centuries-old landmarks and sweeping sea views have drawn visitors to the area for generations. Though the farthest island lies only about 2 kilometres from shore, the archipelago feels surprisingly remote, surrounded by open water and shaped by wind, waves and salt spray.Desktop Version
