Lhakhang literally means “the house of gods,” and in the Buddhist context, “gods” refers to enlightened beings such as the Buddha, his followers, and other deities. A lhakhang is often modeled on a mandala or a representation of Buddhist cosmology. To see more of the magnificence in the mundane follow me @emilypolar.

Photo by @jodymacdonaldphoto I The Jal Mahal (Water Palace), is one of the most captivating sights in Jaipur. The light, sandy stone walls reflecting against the water’s surface creates the illusion of a floating palace in the middle of Man Sagar Lake, affording visitors like this mother and daughter donning traditional Rajasthani attire the perfect opportunity to take a selfie. Follow me @jodymacdonaldphoto to see more images from my travels through India and beyond.

At over 14,000 feet (4,200 meters) above sea level, the heavily glaciated stratovolcano is the perfect frame for the Milky Way. At times you can see, up high on the mountain, the headlamps of climbers getting an early start in an effort to reach the summit before the heat of the day. Follow me @stephen_matera for more images like this from Washington and around the world.

Photo by @MichaelGeorge | When Adélie penguins are traveling a far distance and want to get there quickly, they swim in groups and jump out of the water. This is called porpoising. In this image you can see that when they jump from the water they’re also taking a breath. This image was captured near Snow Hill Island on the Antarctic Peninsula, in the northern part of the Weddell Sea. For more photos and writing from my travels, follow along @MichaelGeorge.
