[h=2]Freerunner, Montreal [/h] Photograph by Micael Martel, Your Shot This Month in Photo of the Day: Adventure and Exploration Photos This shot was taken in Montreal. I’m documenting the lifestyle and the passion of freerunners. Parkour is not a sport, it is a way of life, a discipline based on respect and physical and mental training. Evolving and always pushing the limits of their body and their mind, these passionate athletes stop at nothing to perfect themselves and help other freerunners to do the same. In this shot, my friend, after a lot of training, did a backflip from a four-meter-high building.

[h=2]Deepwater Whip Coral, Japan [/h] Photograph by Brian Skerry, National Geographic This Month in Photo of the Day: Adventure and Exploration Photos What looks like a tangle of gnarled cables is in fact a forest of deepwater whip coral in Suruga Bay. Each strand is studded with feeding polyps that reach tiny tentacles into the currents to grab floating food.
[h=2]Ice Climbing, Croatia [/h] Photograph by Luka Tambaca, Your Shot This Month in Photo of the Day: Adventure and Exploration Photos The long retention of low temperature favored the icing of small Sopot waterfall on Medvednica mountain. The red sky comes from the city lights of nearby Zagreb. Sopot waterfall is the only one in the area, therefore alpinists from Zagreb use every chance for climbing it and staying in shape.
[h=2]Mutnovsky Volcano, Kamchatka[/h] Photograph by Carsten Peter, National Geographic This Month in Photo of the Day: Adventure and Exploration Photos A volcanologist strides through a murky expanse of steam on Mutnovsky Volcano during an expedition to Kamchatka, Russia. The steam billows from a fumarole, or a vent created by heated groundwater and rising volcanic gas, and it serves as a visible reminder that the peninsula is one of the most volcanically active regions in the world, with some 29 active volcanoes.

Research now shows that the older such trees get, the more wood they put on.
