“When that storm is coming toward you, you become immersed in the moment; there's nothing else you can think about. You're dialed into being in nature, and that's it — that’s enough. That is everything.” Storm chaser @tyschmitt opened up to the @beautifuldestinations team about his work chasing extreme storms — and how he learned, by showing up to face these physical tempests, to face those within himself as well. His story and work is a beautiful metaphor that we can all learn from — we may be able to run from the storms in our own lives, but by turning to embrace and confront the chaos head-on, each one of us can become the hero or heroine of our own story.

As the sun rises over the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve — the UAE’s first national park — onlookers in vibrantly-hued hot air balloons take in the vastness of the landscape as morning light illuminates the sandy scene. Dubai has taken groundbreaking steps in preserving this unique and beautiful desert habitat, especially when it comes to its endangered animals and threatened flora and fauna species. Photographer @loganstrongarms shares his experience of the reserve, reminding us how important it is to care for the planet we call home. "Meeting the employees of the reserve really helped us understand how passionate Dubai is about environmental conservation. Overlooking the divide between the desolate dunes and the habitable reserve was an incredibly impactful part of my hot air balloon experience — to me, the sight signified the important role conservation efforts play in the preservation of our beautiful planet." How do you help preserve the beauty of the world? (@visit.dubai, 📍: Dubai)

“Don’t let language barriers be the reason you don’t connect.” Photographer and #BDTeam member @cory.s.martin examines the instinctual craving for human connection — one that travel allows us to explore by dissolving the notion of conceived barriers — by looking through a closer lens during his trips. In one of his recent projects, he captured a series of individuals in their homes and hometowns to show the beauty in observing a destination through a local’s view. He ventured to far-flung corners of the world, including the location featured in this shot, Jerash, Jordan, to inspire the desire for people to seek out those local connections while traveling. In this portrait, a man stands stoically next to his horse, their bond — epitomized by the touching of their heads — is quite moving. How do you explore human connection when you travel?

Arachnocampa Luminosa glows in electric glimmers — speckling the vast, pitch-black underground caves of Waitomo with a turquoise luminescence. In their home on the North Island of New Zealand, thousands of these tiny glowworms radiate their distinctly-hued light into complete darkness to lure prey — small insects, snails, and slugs — by tricking them into believing the cave walls are actually the night sky. The #BDTeam members who captured this shot were struck by the dazzling site and oddity that nature had created — a fun reminder that some of the strangest circumstances can create some of the most beautiful outcomes.

Black asphalt snakes through a quiet road as the dusty light from the setting sun burns a brilliant red against the Aztec Sandstone of this state park in Nevada. With its blazing shades of vermilion and scarlet, it’s not hard to see why the park is known as the Valley of Fire. The members of park services are the unsung heroes of treasures like this — they play an essential role in protecting and preserving the integrity of these natural wonders. Let’s do our part to help them and keep Mother Nature safe and clean. What is one of your favorite national parks? (📷: @karl_shakur 📍 : Valley of Fire State Park - Overton, Nevada)

A chorus of beluga whales trails alongside photographer Tiffany Nguyen during a recent kayak trip in Manitoba, Canada. “These curious creatures swam right alongside us as we paddled on the Hudson Bay — it’s one experience I’ll be thinking about for years to come!” These gentle giants are one of the ocean’s most magnificent and friendliest creatures, yet environmental factors and stresses threaten their previously peaceful existence. Pollution is one of their top adversaries — still seeping into their environments despite certain protections that are currently in place. Take a moment today to think about how you can reduce your impact on the environment and how you can get involved. Whether it’s focusing on recycling more, supporting movements that enforce important policies, or supporting organizations that advocate for the preservation of our oceans and seas, let’s come together to protect our seabirds so that we can continue to swim alongside them well into the future.
