사람의 숨을 멎게하는 아름다운 사진들 (내셔널 지오그래픽 제공)

디지털 카메라도, 인터넷에서 온갖 사진을 본다는 건 꿈도 못꾸던 시절, 월간 "내셔널 

지오그래픽"은 숨을 멎게하는 사진을 제공하는 최고의 매체였죠. 어려운 단어가 많은 

기사를 읽는 건 포기하고라도 사진을 보는 것 만으로도 구독을 중단할 수 없었죠. 

무겁기는 얼마나 무거웠던지 사무실 옮길때면 애를 먹었죠.

herd included 2 adult females, a few teenagers, and a baby that was a few days 

old (belonging to one of the adult females). The hyenas were trying to get at the

 baby. In this picture, the mother is kicking at the hyenas.

Guangxi, China.  (? James Bian/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest) 

7. The late morning fall air was just cool enough that the sap weeping from the 

trees would solidify in mid flight... creating beautiful marbles of amber falling to

 the ground. Kingston Mills  Water Locks - Kingston, Ontario, Canada. 

(? Jay Foulds/ National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

8. Masters of disguise. The Eastern Screech Owl is seen here doing what they 

do best. You better have a sharp eye to spot these little birds of prey. 

(? Graham McGeorge/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

9. This tabular iceberg floats majestically in the Southern Ocean a few miles from 

South Georgia Island. Formerly a whaling station, the island is now an Antarctic 

research center. It was the ultimate destination of Ernest Shackelton's desperate 

rescue voyage in 1916. (? Sue Volek/ National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

10. I have been traveling around the world and parts of Asia for the last six 

months and this is a shot I took at Tiger Palace in Bangkok, this is one of just 

a few tiger sanctuaries in Thailand that do not drug the animals, and because of

 this they sometimes get incredibly playful, here the tigers are having a play fight

 in some water. What was truly amazing was the speed at which they move, one 

minute they are 200 yards away, the next, they are right next to you staring down

 like they are deciding how you taste! (? Daniel Sakal/National Geographic

 Traveler Photo Contest)



11. A very hungry humming bird drinking from the mouth of a person in Wyoming during an 

extreme drought in 2012. (? Sundell Larsen/National Geographic Traveler Photo

 Contest)



12. This picture is not a photo of painting, landscape nor I have used any 

Photoshop except  minor cropping, rotation and converting from raw to jpeg. 

It is colored threads/wool hanging  from the wall in an amazing way with a nail 

head coming out in between. I tried to create a feeling of moon and sea. 

(? Aditya Vardhan Tibrewala/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

13. King of the Hill: An American Bison on the National Bison Range, Moiese, 

Montana. (? Mark Mesenko/ National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

town overlooked the rest of the city and gave us a breathtaking view as the sun 

and rain mixed one evening. (? Blake Burton/National Geographic Traveler Photo 

Contest) 

15. I have seen alligators and turtles together in ponds before, but never like this!

 I was at Bluebill Pond in Harris Neck NWR when I saw what I thought was an 

alligator sunning itself on a stump. As I got closer I realized that it was actually 

perched on the back of a turtle! I wish  I had been there to witness how this 

surprising esprit de corps had came to pass! (? Mary Ellen Urbanski/National 

Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

16. Imagine yourself as this lone tree, standing in the snow waves. Jasper 

National Park, Alberta, Canada. (? Victor Liu/National Geographic Traveler Photo 

Contest)

17. Living in Seattle I am spoiled by its beautiful skyline and the iconic Space 

Needle. This was not my first attempt capturing the moon with the Space Needle. 

After one failed attempt,  I went back the next day for a second attempt and was

 treated with perfect conditions. As the moon rose above the horizon I was in 

disbelief as to how big it was, dwarfing the entire Space Needle observation deck.

 (? Hai Nguyen/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

18. This picture was taken at the majestic Iguazu Falls, Misiones, Argentina. The 

flight of this flock of swifts across the huge waterfalls portrays the sense of 

freedom and wildness that belongs to this fantastic world wonder. 

(? Francesco Filippo Pellegrini/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

19. Tearing down a super tanker on a shoe-string budget. A gas torch, a tow line

 and human  labor force, Sitakunda, Chittagong, Bangladesh. (? Lee Chong

20. While on safari in Kruger National Park we watched a coalition of four male 

cheetahs crossing the plain. This one got distracted and fell behind. Once he 

noticed the others were gone, he sprinted to catch up. I caught him nicely with 

a slow shutter pan. (? Douglas Croft/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

21. Shooting New Taipei City night scene, in the distance, a huge, strange cloud,

painting. (? / National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

 They come down from the mountains to sell their handmade jewelry and woven 

bags to tourists.  (? Cynthia MacDonald/National Geographic Traveler Photo

23. Kauai is a wild and magical place. It invokes a sense of freedom, appreciation,

 and love. At this particular beach waves rebound and crash off of lava rocks and

 cliffs forming into interesting shapes. (? Lace Andersen/National Geographic 

Traveler Photo Contest)

24. A young bat and his mother in flight in Pardes Hanna-Karkur, Israel. 

(? Gilad Guy/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest) 



25. Bonobos...the unknown Ape. Most people do not even know what Bonobos 

are. I have been documenting their behavior for over 4 years now at the 

Jacksonville Zoo here in Florida  and all I can say is this: "Minutes turn to hours 

when I am photographing Bonobos. I love to  watch their mannerisms and 

interactions with each other. They are without a doubt our closest relative. It is 

my dream to one day get a chance to photograph them in the wild in their own 

world in the DRC." (? Graham McGeorge/National Geographic Traveler Photo 

Contest)

Turkey.  (? Reynaldi Herdinanto/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

29. A child, captured by surprise, during shooting of a part of the old city (Sun 

City) of Jodhpur, India. (? Bruno Tamiozzo/National Geographic Traveler Photo

30. Eruption of the Cordon Caulle, Chile. This was taken from Antillanca mountain.

 However despite the distance, the sound was awesome and was the most 

incredible experiences of my life with my uncle, who accompanied me that night. 

(? Rival Gustavo/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

31. I took this photograph near the spillway of Jordan lake dam shortly after the 

Osprey returned to my area for the 2013 season. Early in the spring, you can find

 them fishing at the  base of the dam. I love photographing wildlife, but have a 

special place in my heart for any type of raptor. (? Brad Lenear/National 

Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

32. A scientist climbs out of an ice cave formed by volcanic vents near the

the skies." (John Keats). The Duke of Westminster's Drive, in Chester, England.

gentleman and  his friends were riding across the state using only the real deal 

old school equipment. (? Jesper Anhede/National Geographic Traveler Photo 

Contest)

37. Pergamon was an ancient Greek city in Aeolis, today located 16 miles (26 km)

 from the Aegean Sea on a promontory on the north side of the river Caicus. 

Some ancient authors regarded it as a colony of the Arcadians, but the various 

origin stories all belong to legend. (? Mehmet Fatih Yaldiz/National Geographic 

Traveler Photo Contest)

38. Taken during the Belle Fouche prescribed burn at Devils Tower National 

Monument, Wyoming. (? Drew Gilmour/National Geographic Traveler Photo 

Contest)

39. This great white shark struck directly from below with such force that it leapt 

entirely clear of the water. Gansbaai, South Africa, where this image was taken, 

is one of the only places in the world where the sharks exhibit this behavior. 

(? Thomas Pepper/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

40. This image is shot in Kampung Pulo in East Jakarta. This village is unique with

 their various colors and plenty and maze like alleyways. I waited for a perfect 

moment on this dark alley when a child went out of his home and ran through the

alley to meet his friends to play. (? Michael Ken/ National Geographic Traveler 

Photo Contest)

41. This church was built about 200 years ago on the banks of Hemavathi River 

near Hassan,  India. About 25 years before, Gorur Dam was built, and every year 

the monsoons fill up the reservoir and flood the church, submerging it. Every 

Cycle takes away part of this holy place  until nothing will remain. Hopefully this 

picture would provide a view of what man makes and  how nature takes it away. 

(? Gurdyal Singh/National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)

Geographic Traveler Photo Contest)
