National Geographic празднует 100 миллионов подписчиков в Instagram

Остерегайтесь, Бейонсе, Арианда Гранде и Кайли Дженнер, есть новый аккаунт в Instagram со 100 миллионами подписчиков. National Geographic только что собрал 100 миллионов подписчиков в Instagram,  и, чтобы отпраздновать это событие, они провели 24-часовой конкурс фотографий. Было представлено более 94 000 фотографий, и главный призер получил фотопутешествие в Танзанию.

Пользователям было предложено пометить свою самую «вдохновленную Nat-Geo фотографию» с помощью хэштега # natgeo100contest. Редакторы фотографий и фотографы из National Geographic затем просмотрели материалы, чтобы выбрать 10 лучших фотографий. Эти финалисты были опубликованы в Instagram Nat Geo, и публика голосовала за победителя.

В конце концов, фотограф дикой природы  Ketan Khambhatta  получил главный приз за свою невероятную фотографию зебр на водопое. Сделанное в национальном заповеднике Масаи Мара в Кении, изображение было выбрано в качестве финалиста за его динамичную композицию и способность  Khambhatta  запечатлеть такой невероятный момент.

Давайте посмотрим на других финалистов, а также некоторые из наших любимых работ с конкурса. И не забудьте  подписаться на National Geographic, чтобы увидеть больше невероятных фотографий природы и диких животных со всего мира.

This photo by Adam Kiefer @adamkieferphoto, was a finalist in the #natgeo100contest | National Park Ranger Matthieu Shamavu embraces Matabishi, an orphaned juvenile mountain gorilla, at the Senkwekwe Center, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Senkwekwe is the only rehabilitation center for mountain gorillas in the world. * Selected by photographer Ami Vitale @amivitale: “The image is sublime because we immediately understand that it's a metaphor for unspeakable brutality but also great tenderness. This image illustrates our complex bond with the natural world.”

This photo by Chris O'Bryan @obryan.wildlife, was a finalist in the #natgeo100contest | Galahs, a species of cockatoo, scour the parched Outback for water in Western Australia. Here, waterholes are the vital source of life. * Selected by photographer Wayne Lawrence @waynelawrence: Of all of the images of wildlife, this one seems less clichéd and stood out because of the masterly use of color and composition.

This photo by Sandra Cattaneo Adorno @sandracattaneoadorno, was a finalist in the #natgeo100contest |On a day when the sea was unusually rough and the undertow dangerously strong, bathers on Ipanema beach, in Rio de Janeiro, appear hesitant to take the plunge. * Selected by photographer Michaela Skovranova @mishkusk: A surreal scene—this image highlights an eclectic mix of light, human impact, and the power of the environment. It’s as if the heat of the Earth and the humans is radiating off the sand, creating their own micro climate.

This photo by Frank Haluska @fshaluska, was a finalist in the #natgeo100contest | Great Egrets appear serene and still in wetlands, but they are also vicious hunters, who eat anything they can catch—including this bullfrog, who appears to be fighting hard for survival * Selected by photographer Corey Arnold @arni_coraldo : This moment is so bizarre and confusing that I had to zoom in to make sure another animal’s foot wasn’t sticking straight out of the water to block the distressed frog from certain death.

This photo by Francisco J. Perez @franciscop777, was a finalist in the #natgeo100contest | A summer thunderstorm rolls over the Grand Canyon. This image is a combination of three consecutive long exposure photos of the storm. * Selected by photographer Charlie Hamilton James @chamiltonjames: “This is an exceptional image of lightning striking the Grand Canyon. It is muddy, dramatic and demonstrates excellent technical ability.”

This photo by Sara Stein @sarasteinphotography, was a finalist in the #natgeo100contest | This image depicts the frantic momentum of wildebeest crossing the Mara River in Tanzania. * Selected by photographer Tasneem Alsultan @tasneemalsultan: “I enjoy photos that aren't that obvious. Is it wasps of hair? Or shards of wood? The mass of horns rushing my way seem lethal, and yet the photographer made us see the image from an artistic view.”

Can you see the sea horse? This photo was taken in Page, AZ during our last road trip. Strange shapes start to appear in the layers carved into these slot canyons. #natgeo100contest

Another one of my all time favorite images: Munganau walks home. The erupting #Tavurvur volcano has destroyed beautiful #Rabaul town. The people showed amazing resilience against the odds of nature and stayed with the hope, that their paradise will one day return. Fingers crossed that the volcano stays quiet! . . . . . . . #volcanotown #favouritepicture #abenteuereuropa #creativecloud_de #adobecreativecrowd #picoftheweek #livefoethestory #natgeo #natgeo100contest #natgeocreative #natgeoimagecollection #matupit #plesmangi #lovehome #homeoswheretheheartis #papuanewguinea #pngtourism #papuaneuguinea

This is probably my most favorite shot and for that it’s probably the one I feel that was inspired most by the content within @natgeo #natgeo100contest Unlike instagram where images are overly planned and curated on many feeds, the images shot by Nat Geo photographers are more gritty. They tell stories of a moment that plays out before them. They don’t shoot for likes they shoot to make us more aware of what is. Keep up the good work @natgeao and thanks!⁣ ⁣ #⁣freediving #freedive #Indonesia #wakatobi #underwater #uwpic #underwaterphotography #spearfishing
