The Village


January 3, 2015 - The Village
Photograph by Gabor Dvornik, National Geographic Your Shot “This little lake is a part of my life,” writes Your Shot member Gabor Dvornik, who lives half a mile from its location on a natural reserve in SzÅ'dliget, Hungary. “I shoot here nearly every month, sometimes every week.



It has a very special air in every season, but to have a nice, misty day is rare, as wind is always present due to the nearby Duna River.” Seeing the fog during a last glance outside the night before, Dvornik slept only three hours to make it to the lake for a “dream” shoot. “It was utterly ghostly and very moody out there,” he writes. “I felt like I was in a fantasy tale, in an enchanted land. I was so euphoric that I made around 500 captures and walked around the lake two to three times.” This photo was submitted to Your Shot.

The 19-inch-wide by 23-inch-long piece, found by researchers in 1991, is strongly believed to be a metal fragment installed on the window of Earhart's Lockheed Electra aircraft during her eight-day stay in Miami, which was her fourth stop on the journey. A photograph on TIGHAR's site from The Miami Herald, dated July 1, 1937, sho...
