- Cloudforest Waterfall
A3Cloudforest WaterfallThe crater lake of the Poas Volcano drains from 9,000 feet into this high altitude cloudforest ravine. Stepping downward through a series of five waterfalls, we descend as the sun rises. Rays of light catch suspended water particles from the falling water, as green threads of life cling to sodden cliff walls. From within its pupa, an owl butterfly emerges with the increasing warmth of day, pumping fluid into its silken wings. Through the last rock opening, the water and sun burst out and down towards a restful pool, the famous La Paz waterfall. - PingAn Rice Paddies
A9PingAn Rice PaddiesFrogs, spiders, and birds wake to the morning sun on a terraced farm near PingAn, China. Take in the morning activities of the Dragon's Backbone, a stunning sixty-six square kilometers of crop terraces hand-cultivated by 800 farmers that snake up over a thousand feet of vertical altitude. These are marks of the Zhuang people. - Buddhists of Wat Svay
A10Buddhists of Wat SvayThe morning chants of monks echo from within a Theravada Buddhist monastery, near the community’s busy crossroads. A vibrant pigeon roost is found on the pagoda’s rooftop, amidst ornamental carvings. School children wander among the votive stupas, maintaining the grounds. A spectacular rainbow soars over the temple.
