Keukenhof Gardens, Lisse, Netherlands
Keukenhof Gardens, Lisse, Netherlands
Imagine a flower sparking a financial frenzy. Sounds unlikely, right? Yet in the 1630s, tulips did exactly that in the Netherlands. During tulip mania, rare bulbs became luxury items traded for astonishing sums—some valued at prices comparable to a house. Why so valuable? Unusual colours and striped patterns were scarce and unpredictable, and collectors wanted the rarest varieties they could find.Desktop Version
Star Wars Day
Star Wars Day
May the 4th be with you! On Star Wars Day, reality cosplays as science fiction and dares you to tell the difference. Our image takes us to Ksar Ouled Soltane in Tunisia"s Tataouine district, where stacked clay granaries rise like sand‑coloured fortresses. Dating back to the 15th century, this storehouse complex was built by Berber communities to protect harvests from heat, theft and time. Function first. Beauty as a side effect.Desktop Version
Everglades National Park, Florida, United States
Everglades National Park, Florida, United States
Wetlands don"t shout for attention–they flow quietly, shaping entire landscapes. Few places prove their power like Everglades National Park in the United States. From above, Florida"s famous "River of Grass" unfolds as a vast patchwork of shallow water, sawgrass, mangroves and winding channels, shaped by freshwater slowly flowing south from Lake Okeechobee. It"s also the only place on Earth where American alligators and American crocodiles share space, each sticking to their preferred waters.Desktop Version
National Trails Day
National Trails Day
If your screen time has been winning lately, today is a good time to change that—we suggest hiking. National Trails Day was created in 1993 by the American Hiking Society. It is marked in the United Kingdom as well on the first Saturday in June, where organisations across England and Wales nudge people towards exploring trails.Desktop Version

Skradinski Buk Waterfall, Krka National Park, Croatia
Water is the architect of Krka National Park in Croatia, shaping emerald pools and layered waterfalls along the Krka River. Today"s image highlights Skradinski Buk, the park"s most famous waterfall system, where multiple streams spill over travertine terraces in a dense forest near the village of Lozovac.Desktop Version
Arched iceberg, western Antarctic Peninsula, Southern Ocean
Arched iceberg, western Antarctic Peninsula, Southern Ocean
A sculpted arch of ice rises from the Southern Ocean along the Antarctic Peninsula, one of the fastest-warming regions on Earth. This formation began as compacted snow that turned into glacial ice over thousands of years. Eventually, part of a glacier or floating ice shelf fractured and broke free—a process known as calving—creating a drifting iceberg.Desktop Version
International Day for Biological Diversity
International Day for Biological Diversity
Observed each year on 22 May, International Day for Biological Diversity is a global reminder that life on Earth is richer—and more fragile—than it appears. Established by the United Nations, today highlights why protecting plants, animals and ecosystems matters for food, medicine, climate stability and everyday well-being.Desktop Version
Hawksbill Mountain, Shenandoah National Park, United States
Hawksbill Mountain, Shenandoah National Park, United States
How high is high enough for a great view? In the eastern United States, it doesn"t take much. Hawksbill Mountain is the highest point in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia, United States, at more than 1,200 metres, showing how these older mountains rely on openness, not elevation. The park"s establishment in 1935 involved reforestation after extensive farming and logging. Today, much of that land has returned to forest, supporting mixed hardwoods, mountain laurel and rhododendron. What else? Some of the rocks found here date back over 1 billion years, among the oldest in the state. The park shelters over 200 bird species and 32 species of fish and remains dog-friendly, allowing pets in campgrounds and on most trails.Desktop Version

Great Barrier Reef from above, Queensland, Australia
One of the world"s greatest natural wonders stretches through the turquoise waters of the Coral Sea off Australia"s northeast shoreline. The Great Barrier Reef, running along the coast of Queensland, is the world"s largest coral reef system. It is made up of nearly 3,000 individual reefs and hundreds of islands, spanning more than 1,400 miles.Desktop Version
Plains zebra foal in Etosha National Park, Namibia
Plains zebra foal in Etosha National Park, Namibia
Etosha National Park, Namibia, is not a place for soft starts, and the plains zebra foal in this image seems to get the memo. In a land this vast—nearly 8,600 square miles of salt pans and grassland—timing is everything, and hesitation is expensive. Lions, spotted hyenas, wild dogs, cheetahs and leopards constantly pressure the herd—especially the youngest—so zebras are born ready. Minutes after arrival, they"re upright. Hours later, they"re moving.Desktop Version

Aerial view of surfers, Santa Catarina, Brazil
Off the coast of Santa Catarina in southern Brazil, the image captures a familiar ritual: surfers waiting beyond the breaking waves, their boards rising and falling with the Atlantic. From above, almost nothing seems to happen. But that"s when the real work begins.Desktop Version
Mount Fuji on Honshu Island, Japan
Mount Fuji on Honshu Island, Japan
Mount Fuji, Japan"s highest mountain, rises to 3,776 metres on Honshu Island, about 60 miles southwest of Tokyo. Its near-perfect cone is a volcano—dormant since its last eruption in December 1707 yet still classed as active. That last major event is known as the Hōei eruption. It blasted ash and other tephra across eastern Japan, reaching Edo (today"s Tokyo). Beyond geology, Fuji has long been treated as a sacred landscape and a destination for pilgrimage climbs, reflecting how nature, religion and daily life overlap in Japan. That enduring cultural appeal is one reason it was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2013 as "a sacred place and source of artistic inspiration." Fuji is famously visible from far away on clear days but never guaranteed—clouds can hide it in minutes. Whether you hike it or just catch a glimpse from a train window, it still feels like Japan"s signature on the horizon.Desktop Version
Arch and Milky Way, Alabama Hills, California, United States
Arch and Milky Way, Alabama Hills, California, United States
In today"s image, the granite arches of the Alabama Hills frame the Milky Way over a rugged landscape in California"s eastern Sierra Nevada. Famous for its rounded boulders and weathered rock formations, this area formed when molten rock cooled deep underground around 100 million years ago. Water and wind gradually shaped the stone into the smooth shapes seen today. Visitors can explore the natural arches, hike among the rocks, capture photographs of the unique landscape, ride horses or mountain bikes and enjoy seasonal displays of wildflowers.Desktop Version
Old city wall of Hwaseong Fortress, Suwon, South Korea
Old city wall of Hwaseong Fortress, Suwon, South Korea
As night settles over Suwon, South Korea, the old city wall pictured here shows that function doesn"t necessarily cancel out beauty—it can create it. Built between 1794 and 1796 under King Jeongjo of the Joseon Dynasty, Hwaseong Fortress was more than a barrier. It was policy in stone: a reform‑minded push for a leaner, better-run state, driven by practicality and a deeply personal motive. Jeongjo ordered its construction to honour his father while strengthening a kingdom that wanted smarter systems, not just thicker walls.Desktop Version

World Rainforest Day
World Rainforest Day
22 June is World Rainforest Day, a global moment and a year-round call to protect the world"s remaining rainforests. These ecosystems aren"t just dots on the map. They thrive across the tropics and beyond yet cover only about 6% of Earth"s surface. Think of the Amazon in South America, the Congo Basin in Africa and the forests of Southeast Asia.Desktop Version

Highway through Xitai Jinaier Lake, Qinghai Province, China
Highway through Xitai Jinaier Lake, Qinghai Province, China
Cutting a surreal path through the high-altitude deserts of western China, Xitai Jinaier Lake (also known as West Taijinar Lake) is a striking salt lake in the remote Qaidam Basin. A stretch of National Highway 315 runs directly across its shallow waters, creating the illusion of a road floating between two worlds. On one side, the water often appears deep blue; on the other, a softer green hue, a contrast shaped by differing mineral concentrations in the brine.Desktop Version
Pollinator Week
Pollinator Week
Zoom in on the small transaction that keeps landscapes alive: a butterfly on a yellow flower, sipping nectar. While it feeds, pollen dusts its body and hitches a ride to the next bloom—one of the quiet ways flowering plants reproduce. Pollinators are not only bees. Butterflies, birds, bats, beetles and many others help move pollen, supporting wild plants and many of the fruits and vegetables we eat.Desktop Version
World Bicycle Day
World Bicycle Day
Your average route to work might not resemble the one in today"s image, but it shouldn"t stop you from pedalling. World Bicycle Day invites us to rethink what"s possible on two wheels—whether the ride cuts through city streets or remote terrain. Observed every 3 June, the United Nations–backed day recognises cycling as a practical way to move, supporting health, lowering emissions and making mobility more accessible.Desktop Version
Tremola Road on the Saint Gotthard Pass in Airolo, Switzerland
Tremola Road on the Saint Gotthard Pass in Airolo, Switzerland
Follow the glowing ribbon of switchbacks and you"ll find one of Switzerland"s most legendary drives: Tremola Road, the historic southern approach to the Saint Gotthard Pass, above Airolo. Built in the early 1800s and largely shaped by a 1951 reconstruction, this route is celebrated as Switzerland"s longest monument to historic road construction. Its showstopper stretch climbs about 300 metres in just 2.5 miles, curling through 24 named hairpin bends on granite cobblestones, with sturdy retaining walls edging the way. Overall, it runs about 7 miles and features 37 bends in total. Take it slow—every curve feels like a step back in time, trading speed for sweeping mountain scenery and big views towards the upper Leventina Valley. Whether you"re driving, cycling or pulling over for photos, look for the Grand Tour of Switzerland photo spot framing those iconic zigzags.Desktop Version
World Bee Day
World Bee Day
A soft buzz and a dusting of pollen can shape the future of our food. World Bee Day, observed each year on 20 May, celebrates pollinators like the bumble bee pictured here during its quiet yet essential work. Unlike many insects, bumble bees use "buzz pollination," vibrating their flight muscles to shake pollen from flowers—a method vital for crops such as tomatoes, peppers and blueberries.Desktop Version
European bee-eater in Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, Cádiz, Spain
European bee-eater in Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, Cádiz, Spain
A streak of colour glides past a blur of wildflowers as a European bee-eater cuts through the air. Turquoise, gold and chestnut shimmer across its wings as it hunts in flight, snatching insects mid-air with swift turns. Bees and wasps are among its favoured prey, and the bird often removes the stinger before feeding—a behaviour that reduces the risk of injury.Desktop Version
