柬埔寨暹粒，一名年幼的当地男孩接受剃度出家。他很可能只是在成年工作以前在寺院里供职几年。

This Month in Photo of the Day: Your Photos

This photo is a depiction of impermanence, imprints, and impressions of life. Oblivious of the din due to a midnight fair, the pilgrims have queued up to pay their obeisance to their lord, Shiva, on the pious occasion of Mahashivaratri festival. Those who have received the blessings retire with spiritual satisfaction. Location: Kyasara village in a deep pocket in southeast Rajasthan, India.

Birds Fighting, Rondeau Provincial Park, Canada
Photograph by Martin Lukasiewicz

Taken at Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada, this image shows a fight between a redheaded woodpecker and a yellow-shafted northern flicker over a nest hole. The redheaded woodpeckers tried to chase away the intruding flickers but after this encounter, the fight was over. The flicker managed to grab the redheaded by its tongue and force it all the way down to the ground. Both birds spiraled while falling to the ground. It must have been painful as the redheaded gave up after this clash.

争斗的鸟,Rondeau省立公园,加拿大
摄影:Martin Lukasiewicz

本月每日一图的主题是：你的照片

这张拍摄于加拿大安大略Rondeau省立公园的照片，记录下了一只红头啄木鸟和一只金翼啄木鸟在巢穴外争斗的场景。红头啄木鸟试图赶走入侵的啄木鸟，但在这场遭遇战之后，争斗就结束了。金翼啄木鸟努力用它的喙去咬住红头啄木鸟，并把它一路赶到了地上。落到地上时，两只鸟纠缠在了一起。当红头啄木鸟在这场冲突后做出放弃时，它必定已经很痛苦了。

Kumbh Mela in Allahabad, India
Photograph by Greg Vore

This Month in Photo of the Day: Your Photos

This photo was taken during the 2007 Kumbh Mela in Allahabad. This was during the sadhus’ procession to the Sangam to bathe on Mauni Amavasya, the new moon for the saints. It was very early in the morning, and there was a thick fog that added an even greater sense of magic and mystery to this ritual.

Zebra, Tanzania
Photograph by Giedo van der Zwan

We were taking shots in the southwest of Serengeti, Tanzania. This location is known as Hidden Valley and was full of animals from the great migration.

This pregnant zebra came out of the dust for a second to take a look at me. She was the perfect poser! Head straight, ears up, legs in line, tail accentuating her curving body while the herd in the background created the perfect stage of dust!

这些照片来自坦桑尼亚塞伦盖蒂西南部。这个地方是一个秘密山谷，因迁徙季节而挤满了动物。

这匹怀孕的斑马停下片刻看着我。她真是一个完美的模特！直视，竖耳，腿在一直线上，尾巴令她弯曲的身体显得更加优美，而背景中的斑马群更是用飞扬的尘土创造出了一个完美的舞台。
