Nat. Geographic presents 22 #stunning #photos from its archives, curated by M. Tessler from the section #PhotooftheDay. They show #authenticity, #nearness, and the photographic preservation of unusual #fleetingmoments. I think they prove that great photography is not determined by the camera used or the #motif, but by the #photographer's subjective #perception of a scene.
