  • Flames surround a Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) cone in King County, Washington. Douglas fir cones are unique in that they have three-pronged brachts that extend from between the scales. According to Native American legends, those brachts represent mice that used the cone for protection during forest fires; the mice dove headfirst into the cones and the three prongs represent their hing legs and tail.

  • Several Perseid meteors, including two especially bright ones, streak across the sky over Mount Shuksan in the North Cascades of Washington state. The Perseids are an annual meteor shower that occurs in August when Earth passes through the debris of Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle. The meteors are comet debris burning up in the Earth's atmosphere.

  • A meteor from the Perseid meteor shower streaks along the Milky Way, which appears to erupt from Mount Baker in Washington state. The Perseids are an annual meteor shower that occurs in August when Earth passes through the debris of Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle. The meteors are comet debris burning up in the Earth's atmosphere. Mount Baker, which stands 10,781 feet (3,286 meters), is an active volcano with the second-most thermally active crater in the Cascade Range.

  • The golden light of sunset colors the walls of Mont Saint-Michel, a former monastery on a tidal island in Normandy, France. Mont Saint-Michel was known as Mont-Tombe until the 8th century when St. Aubert built a church there after having a vision of the archangel St. Michael. It soon became a pilgrimage center and a Benedictine abbey was built there in 966. After it was partially burned in 1203 during a takeover attempt by King Philip II of France, a monastery, known as La Merveille (“The Wonder”), was built and later fortified. The Mont Saint-Michel monastery was dissolved during the French Revolution (1787–99) and became a prison under Napoleon’s reign before the site was restored as a historic monument in 1874. Mont Saint-Michel was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1979. Mont Saint-Michel lies at the mouth of the Couesnon River, which is visible at on the left side of the image. Mont Saint-Michel is cut off from the mainland by sea water during very high tides.
