Photo Essay: When a Kid's Bedroom Isn't a Room

As it turns out, you don't have to settle for a diet of only fruits and vegetables if you're calorie-counting. The portion sizes they photographed are relative to one another and should provide some comfort to would-be dieters who can't live without potato chips or candy.A new photographic showcase will be unveiled at the Royal Geographical Society this week. The Environmental Photographer of the Year 2013 exhibition features "the very best in environmental and social photography and video", which aims to "enhance our understanding of the causes, consequences and solutions to climate change and social inequality".
