1. Amazon (South America)
The Amazon Rainforest, also known as Amazonia, the Amazon jungle or the Amazon Basin, encompasses seven million square kilometers (1.7 billion acres), though the forest itself occupies some 5.5 million square kilometers (1.4 billion acres), located within nine nations. The Amazon represents over half of the planet's remaining rainforests and comprises the largest and most species-rich tract of tropical rainforest in the world. The Amazon River is the largest river in the world by volume, with a total flow greater than the top ten rivers worldwide combined. It accounts for approximately one-fifth of the total world river flow and has the biggest drainage basin on the planet. Not a single bridge crosses the Amazon.

"Come follow along on my journey. Explore, consider, and take something with you. This is nature through my eyes. These photographs do not arise from any particular desire to see the world through a lens, but rather from my deep passion for this land we call wilderness. It has shaped every aspect of my life. I wish to show you the amazing, beautiful and powerful forces that have created the Earth we live on."
~ Marc Adamus

The tradition of giving flowers is one that is revered by lovers, friends and families all around the globe. While flower giving can accompany almost any occasion, the most common reason to give flowers is to express romantic love. Nervous first dates, wedding decorations and bridal bouquets, anniversaries, unexpected "I Love You's", "I'm Sorry's", and, of course, the annual love fest that is Valentine's Day are all special occasions that call for beautiful, carefully selected flowers.
