National Geographic - Photographers
National Geographic magazine started publication in October 1888 as the official journal of the National Geographic Society, a nonprofit dedicated to funding science and exploration across the planet.

This documentary focuses on the medium the magazine has helped to shape, looking at how photography has the power to impact our lives by bearing witness, helping to prove fact, giving us insight into each other, revealing unknown places, celebrating wonder and inspiring us to protect our natural world. 

"The Power of Photography" by Robert Draper:

Today photography has become a global cacophony of freeze-frames. Millions of pictures are uploaded every minute.

Correspondingly, everyone is a subject, and knows it—any day now we will be adding the unguarded moment to the endangered species list. It’s on this hyper-egalitarian, quasi-Orwellian, all-too-camera-ready “terra infirma” that National Geographic’s photographers continue to stand out.

Why they do so is only partly explained by the innately personal choices (which lens for which lighting for which moment) that help define a photographer’s style.

Instead, the very best of their images remind us that a photograph has the power to do infinitely more than document. It can transport us to unseen worlds.

National Geographic and Magnum photographers never give themselves rest from self congratulation and back slapping

Mac Appelmann

Wonderful thank you so much for uploading ????

Okay it’s not the easiest job, I’ll give them that, but “the hardest job in the world?” Their egos are some of the biggest in the world. Nonetheless, I love Nat Geo.
