Marty’s photo of the day #4298: Montana! Sure, half the population believes in wild conspiracy theories and wants to take human rights back to the 1800s, but we also have this.

Amazon River water taxi
Marty’s photo of the day #4293: This is a water taxi that goes up and down the Amazon River. If you blow the picture way up, you can see that it is overflowing with people. Not my idea of fun ride! (Photographed in Peru)

Marty’s photo of the day #4292: Here’s a humpback whale, comin’ right at ya! (Photographed off the coast of Antarctica)
ANWR at night
Marty’s photo of the day #4291: I shot this photo well after midnight, in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge of Alaska. Yes, this is as dark as it gets up there in late June.
