Filmmaker Daniel McKee selected over 2,000 flags sourced from Wikipedia and painstakingly arranged them to blend related colors and imagery. The piece features a mix of flags throughout the centuries from the familiar to the obscure, edited and aligned to perfectly match the music of Beethoven. Watching the animation in its entirety offers a dizzying look at the way individuals and institutions have represented themselves over time.

Pitcher plants like these are known to feast on insects like flies. However, at a bog in Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario Canada, scientists have found many pitcher plants with a more ambitious diet. Nearly 20 percent of the carnivorous plants were eating spotted salamanders. It was previously considered a rare phenomenon for these plants to regularly consume vertebrates. This study suggests otherwise. It's possible the salamanders provide an extra boost of nutrients as cold settles in. Scientists speculate that the acidity of the pitcher fluid could kill them or they might get cooked in it when it's heated up by the sun. Spotted salamanders are listed as "of least concern" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List.

Their enslaved ancestors were smuggled into Alabama in 1860, long after the United States had banned the import of slaves. The smugglers burned the ship to hide their crime, and for more than 150 years, the ship's remains lay on the bottom of the Mobile River. The community of Africatown, founded by slaves brought by the Clotilda, grew up nearby.

Photo by Anastasia Taylor-Lind @anastasiatl | Olga Grinik and her son, Kirill (center), picnic in a forest on the outskirts of Avdeevka in Donestsk Oblast, Ukraine. Before the war they would picnic in the forest next to their house. Now it’s a restricted military area, so they drove to this picturesque meadow with a lake view by horse and cart to make a barbecue of chicken wings, potatoes, and eggplants. Here they chatted, played with the kids, and foraged for mushrooms all afternoon. The open air was accompanied by the never-ending sound of shelling and gunfire at the nearby frontline, but nobody paid any attention.

Photo by Gabriele Galimberti @gabrielegalimbertiphoto | From my project about fathers. Switzerland–Jason, 39, Juliette, 10, and Lenny, 7. Jason was born in Vevey, Switzerland, a very nice, small city on the eastern shore of Lake Geneva. Since he was 12, he has loved skateboarding and skiing. Around ten years ago, he opened his first skateboard shop. Now he owns two shops, one in Lausanne and one in Geneva. He loves to go skateboarding with his children and they love it too. His son, Lenny, also has a passion for climbing and his daughter, Juliette, for hip-hop dance. Every Wednesday he's off from work, and so he spends the whole day with his children. “During the summer, on hot days like today, we love to take our skateboards and ride from home to this canal, then jump into the water to cool off,” he says. I’ve recently turned 40, and almost every friend around me has become a parent over the last few years. A couple friends and I are the only ones in our group who still don’t have kids of our own. I naturally began to observe how the others were raising their children. I watch them playing together and hear the arguments and the kids’ complaints at mealtimes or at bedtime. I’ve often been the one in charge of the kids when those moments happen. Maybe, just maybe, these things are making me start to want to be a father. That is why I’ve decided to make the relationships between fathers and their children the focus of this photo project. Wherever I am in the world, when I meet a father I ask him to tell me about a special moment he has spent with his children and, when I can, I photograph them together. #father #fathers

Photo by Hannah Reyes Morales @hannahreyesmorales | A gray day out at sea was lit up by this spear fisherman. I've met some remarkable small-scale fisherfolk out here in the islands of the Philippines. For our archipelago, located in the center of the world's marine biodiversity, fishing is a way of life for many coastal communities. They know the language of the sea, they help scientists identify species of fish, they understand weather patterns intimately by looking out into the horizon. They are also among the first to witness the devastation happening in our oceans. Follow me @hannahreyesmorales for more stories from the #Philippines, and beyond. #Surigao #fishing

Photo by David Guttenfelder @dguttenfelder | It was recently announced that U.S. President Trump's Treasury Department is banning cruise ship travel between the United States and Cuba, walking back the previous administration's relaxation of travel restrictions between the two countries. In 2016, I went on assignment for @natgeo on the first American cruise ship to dock in Cuba for nearly 40 years. Here, a passenger aboard the Adonia looks out over the water, sailing towards Cienfuegos, Cuba. To see more from Cuba, follow me @dguttenfelder and read the full story in the November 2016 edition of @natgeo.

Photo by Stephen Wilkes @stephenwilkes | Breaths from wildebeests are illuminated in the golden light of the Serengeti. These creatures actually help facilitate the migration of other smaller grazing animals across Tanzania. Over two million animals, including gazelles, wildebeests, and zebras make this migration every year.

Photo by George Steinmetz @geosteinmetz | Andean flamingos dot the shallow waters of Bolivia's Laguna Colorada (elevation 14,000 feet), colored pink due to natural hot springs that provide nutrients for red algae to bloom. The birds have specially adapted beaks to feed on diatoms and algae less than one millimeter in diameter. #lawnornaments To see the beauty of our world from above, follow @geosteinmetz

Photos by Lucas Foglia @lucasfogliaphoto | How do you save a rainforest? Create a national park, many conservationists would say. What if you’re a nation with 45 million acres of rainforest—an area about the size of Washington State—and a per capita income of just over $8,000 a year. “A tree left standing is not valuable to a family who can’t feed their children three square meals a day,” says Pradeepa Bholanath, head of planning and development for the Guyana Forestry Commission. With the help of international donors, Guyana is pioneering an approach to protecting the trees that cover more than four-fifths of its surface. To make the rainforest last, it’s using it up slowly. As of now, the only road that transects Guyana’s rainforest is mostly unpaved and often impassable during the rainy season.

Video by Joel Sartore @joelsartore | Found in lowland forests in northeastern New Guinea, the Edward’s fig parrot relies on its predominantly green plumage to help it blend in among the dense vegetation. As its name implies, this species loves to consume figs as well as a variety of other fruits. To see a still image of this vibrant bird, follow me, @joelsartore. Footage recorded @loroparque. #parrot #colorful #fig #photoark

Photo by Jimmy Chin @jimmychin | Josh Huckaby drops in on the 3,000-foot granite wave of El Cap during production of @freesolofilm. When Josh isn’t motoring around Indonesia on a motorcycle with his surfboard searching for some shade, he’s climbing El Cap or working with Yosemite Search and Rescue. We were lucky to have him as our rigger and safety consultant on the production.
