照亮你忧郁的心 Shine a light into your blues

佩霍湖，百内国家公园，智利南部

蓝绿色的湖面上倒映着蔚蓝的天空，周围是嶙峋的山峰和郁郁葱葱的森林，这就是佩霍湖。这个冰川湖坐落在智利南部的百内国家公园内，是大自然的杰作。佩霍湖周围那高耸入云的百内犄角山（因形状酷似牛角而得名）和百内山丘也是一道特别的风景线。佩霍湖的湖水呈现出独特的绿松石蓝，是因为水中悬浮着被称为冰川粉或岩粉的细小岩石颗粒和矿物质。据说“Paine”（百内）一词源于特维尔切语，意为“蓝色”。1978年，百内国家公园被联合国教科文组织认定为生物圈保护区，其面积达700平方英里。徒步、划船、观星……公园里有许多精彩的游玩项目，带上你的冒险精神，向南出发，来一段“告别忧郁”之旅吧！

Lake Pehoé, Torres del Paine National Park, Chile

Turquoise waters surrounded by jagged peaks and lush forests—that's Lake Pehoé for you. Nestled in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile, this glacial lake reflects the towering peaks of the Cuernos del Paine, pictured here bathed in the sun's rays. The lake gets its color from finely ground rock particles and minerals, known as glacial flour, suspended in the water. The word 'paine,' pronounced pie-neh, in the park’s name is believed to have its roots in a Tehuelche word meaning 'blue' while 'torres' means towers. The park is named after three striking granite peaks that reach up to 8,200 feet above sea level but boasts many other spectacular mountains. At 700 square miles, Torres del Paine is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve with a huge amount to offer visitors, from hiking and kayaking to stargazing. So, pack your sense of adventure and head south to beat the blues.

加拿大的发现日

发现日是加拿大育空地区的一个年度节日，用来纪念1896年在富矿溪发现金矿，这个发现开启了克朗代克淘金热，进而推动了育空领地的建立。淘金热吸引了数以千计的淘金者来此寻找财富，推动了重大的经济和社会变革。

发现日是一个纪念和回顾育空地区丰富的遗产、历史和自然资源的好机会，我们今天在照片中看到的美丽的翡翠湖就是其中之一。发现日也是一个用来纪念参与了克朗代克淘金热的淘金者们的冒险精神和坚毅品格的日子。整个育空地区会在这天举办各式节庆活动，包括游行、历史情景重现、淘金比赛、演唱会等等。政府办公室、学校和很多商业机构也会在这一天关闭，以便居民们可以参与到节日活动中来。

Discovery Day in Yukon, Canada

It's Discovery Day in Yukon, Canada, a day to commemorate the 1896 discovery of gold at Bonanza Creek. The event set off the Klondike Gold Rush, which attracted thousands of prospectors to the region in search of gold, leading to significant economic and social changes. The population increase led to Yukon separating from the Northwest Territories and the formation of Yukon Territory in 1898.

Discovery Day celebrates Yukon's rich heritage, history, and natural resources—like Emerald Lake, seen in today's image, known for its deep green hues. You'll find it on the Klondike Highway, which roughly follows the route used by the prospectors more than a century ago. It is also a day to honor the spirit of adventure exhibited during the gold rush. Government offices, schools, and many businesses close to allow people to participate in the festivities, including parades, historical reenactments, gold panning competitions, and concerts.

一面反映大自然之美的镜子 A mirror reflecting nature's beauty

镜池，长野，日本

迷人的镜池坐落在日本长野。水池周围清幽的环境完美倒映在这个人工水库的镜面般的湖水中。被郁郁葱葱的绿色植物和户隐山脉所包围的镜池，四季的风景都各有千秋。在樱花盛开的季节，瓣瓣樱花会随着微风在湖面起伏。秋日，周围橙黄的树木倒映在湖面上，仿佛湖中也有一片人间仙境。

Kagami-ike, Nagano, Japan

This serene Japanese landscape is reflected in the still waters of an artificial reservoir known as Kagami-ike, meaning ‘mirror pond.' Surrounded by lush greenery and the Togakushi Mountain Range in Nagano Prefecture, Kagami-ike emerges from the morning mists to create an enchanting spectacle. During the cherry blossom season, visitors walk among sakura petals that float along the breeze while, in autumn, they can enjoy its surrounding orange and yellow foliage. This secluded spot is a wonderfully peaceful place for mindful meditation and self-reflection.

粉红色，很好看 Pretty in pink

托雷维耶哈潟湖，阿利坎特，西班牙

大自然中的水是什么颜色？我们的第一反应通常是蓝色或绿色。但是你见过粉色的水吗？这片粉红湖泊就是西班牙阿利坎特的托雷维耶哈潟湖。这个湖泊的含盐度非常高，湖面上还有自然形成的盐结晶团，使它成为富含胡萝卜素的微生物藻类繁殖的完美家园，因此才形成了这片粉红的水域。这里的甲壳类动物吃掉这些藻类后，也会变成粉色，进而又被火烈鸟吃掉，最终让火烈鸟也变成了粉色。

Laguna de Torrevieja, Spain

When we encounter bodies of water in nature, we might expect hues of blue, from the pale cyan shade of lagoons to the navy blue of deep lakes. But pink water—where on Earth could that be found? At (deep breath) El Parque Natural de Las Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja in Alicante, Spain. Here, there are two lakes: one green and one pink, and it is the latter that you see on our homepage. The highly saline water, dotted with clusters of salt crystals, is the perfect environment for microscopic algae, which are rich in carotenes. This results in the rosy tinge that protects the algae from solar radiation. And the pink is just getting started, as the algae are eaten by tiny crustaceans, which turn pink and are then eaten by flamingos, which acquire the rosy hue as well.

蓝湖和险峰 Bright blue lakes and rugged mountains

阿尔卑斯 山脉锡尔夫雷塔山的约里森湖，瑞士

今天我们要探索一处超凡脱俗的奇景：瑞士达沃斯附近的约里森湖群。天气晴朗时，湖面会呈现出不真实的蓝色，和周围灰暗、嶙峋的锡尔夫雷塔山形成鲜明的对比。阳光被水中的“岩粉”（湖床被冰川摩擦产生的细微的岩石颗粒）反射，形成了这种鲜艳的蓝色。锡尔夫雷塔山被冰川环绕，和碧蓝色的约里森湖一起被称为“蓝色锡尔夫雷塔”。如果你想亲眼目睹此景，要知道来到此地的路途并不容易。记得带上合适的徒步鞋、大量的饮用水和强健的双腿。

Jöriseen lakes in the Silvretta Alps, Switzerland

Today we're exploring a place of otherworldly beauty: the Jöriseen, a group of alpine lakes near Davos, Switzerland. On sunny days, the lakes glow an ethereal blue, contrasting with the dark, jagged Silvretta Alps that encircle them. The sunlight is reflected in the water by 'rock flour'—silt-sized rock particles generated from the grinding of bedrock by glaciers.

The Silvretta Alps sit across the Swiss-Austrian border and are themselves surrounded by glaciers in an area known as the 'Blue Silvretta.' If you want to enjoy these stunning views up close, you'll have to work for it. Bring your best hiking boots, plenty of water, and some strong legs.

蜿蜒曲折的人工湖泊，鲍威尔湖 Man-made, meandering Lake Powell

世界水日

鲍威尔湖是科罗拉多河上的一座人工水库，跨越犹他州和内华达州边境。19世纪60年代美国修建格伦峡谷大坝后形成了这个水库。大坝利用水力发电，但同时也因为湖面加大了水体的表面积，从而更多的水被蒸发，造成了水资源流失。2000年干旱来临时，鲍威尔湖的水位开始直线下降，到2005年时，鲍威尔湖的储水量几乎仅为1999年时的一半。人类对水资源是极度依赖的，因此联合国在1993年设立了世界水日，旨在通过教育和公益活动在政府和普通人群层面上建立起更好的用水措施。全球人口正在增长，我们每个人都必须为保护水资源和清洁水资源出一份力。

World Water Day

Lake Powell is a man-made reservoir on the Colorado River, stretching across the Utah and Nevada border. It was formed in the 1960s after the US built the Glen Canyon Dam. Though the dam creates power through hydroelectricity, it also causes water loss due to evaporation from the broader surface area of the lake. When the drought took hold around 2000, the lake's water levels began to plummet, and in 2005 it lost nearly half of its volume compared to 1999. It's important to consider our dependence on freshwater, which is why the United Nations created World Water Day in 1993. Through education and activism, they aim to create better water practices on governmental and individual levels. As our global population increases, it's crucial that we all do our part to conserve our freshwater and keep it clean.

内格拉廷湖，格拉纳达，西班牙

今天照片上这个宁静美丽的湖泊是内格拉廷湖，是西班牙安达卢西亚最大的淡水湖之一。内格拉廷湖位于格拉纳达世界地质公园

的中心，由瓜迪亚纳梅诺尔河上的大坝截流而形成，是自然爱好者的天堂。湖边有一个帆船俱乐部，举办各种水上活动，这也使得内格拉廷湖成为了一个亲近大自然和放松身心的度假胜地。湖周围还有壮观的悬崖、沟壑和沙漠。无论春夏秋冬，这里的风景都美得让人窒息。

Negratín Reservoir, Granada, Spain

Step into a world of beauty and serenity with one of the largest freshwater lakes in Andalusia, Spain. The Negratín Reservoir is a nature lover's paradise, created by the Negratín Dam on the Guadiana Menor River and located in the heart of the Granada Geopark. There is a sailing club by the lake, and a variety of aquatic activities make it a popular destination for people looking to relax and unwind in the lap of nature. With imposing cliffs, gullies, and a rugged desert setting all around, the area's landscape is simply breathtaking no matter the time of year.

美丽又危险 Beautiful and dangerous

亚伯拉罕湖，艾伯塔省，加拿大

冬天冰冻的亚伯拉罕湖虽然美丽，其下却暗藏杀机：湖底的沼气被困在冻结的湖面下，形成了这些清晰可见的小气泡。这些自然形成的美景令摄影师趋势若骛。

佩普斯湖

佩普斯湖是欧洲第五大湖泊，形成于数亿年前的古生代。这里的沙丘非常有名，当各方面条件恰好时，这些沙丘会在风吹时“唱歌”。在冬天，结冰的湖面上可能形成照片中的堆积冰。这些堆积冰是由浮冰受到缓慢不均匀的挤压而形成的。

Lake Peipus, Estonia

Lake Peipus, the fifth-largest lake in Europe, dates back hundreds of millions of years to the Paleozoic Era and is known for its sand dunes, which can 'sing' when the wind blows just right. In the winter the frozen lake surface may feature ice hummocks, as seen in this image. The hummocks are caused by slow, uneven pressure in the ice pack.

英格兰 湖区的黑山 (Black Fell)

今天照片中展示的美丽风景是位于英格兰湖区的黑山（Black Fell），“fell”一词源于古挪威语中的“山”，主要是指地势高且贫瘠的地区，而英格兰湖区的土地通常是未经开垦、用于放牧的。黑山（Black Fell）海拔约1000英尺，被评为英格兰湖区的最佳观景区。站在山顶上，无论望向哪个方向，你都能欣赏到美景。

Black Fell in England's Lake District

Today's lovely landscape requires a slight bit of explanation. We're at Black Fell, which can be found in the Lake District of England. The term 'fell' originates from the Old Norse term for mountain, but it mostly applies to high, barren areas and, in the Lake District specifically, the area was usually uncultivated and used for grazing. Black Fell, which is a little over 1000 feet high, has some acclaim having been mentioned in Alfred Wainwright's 'Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells' as a prime viewing area. No matter which direction you gaze, you're sure to see something wonderful.
