Each year, National Geographic photographers canvass the globe to uncover stories that offer a new understanding of our world; and every day, Nat Geo’s photo editors comb through their images, choosing those that “compel the eye and inspire the heart.”

This year, more than 160 National Geographic photographers working across every continent, even Antarctica, submitted 2.1 million images. From those, 29 were selected for PICTURES OF THE YEAR 2023.

“These are images that aren’t just striking—they tell a story and reveal something that makes you see and understand the world in a new way,” said National Geographic Editor-in-Chief Nathan Lump.

From venomous sea kraits in Palau to monarchs wintering in Mexico, the PICTURES OF THE YEAR 2023 take audiences behind these rarely seen subjects and rarely felt moments. The result is a curated collection that’s designed to incite curiosity and inspire a greater understanding of our world.

Their online edition also features videos and a series of tips from top Nat Geo photographers to help audiences take better pictures, including wildlife, portrait, nighttime and underwater photographs.

National Geographic was a great magazine up until 2016 or so. It went downhill shortly after Rupert Murdoch bought it back in 2015, and then the periodicals got thinner, filled with more ads and also started to discuss more US societal problems, and talked less about the beauty of the Earth. Heck, global warming is a relevant issue to the Earth, but gender transformations are not relevant to protecting the Earth (and that's from a bi Christian dude). Am glad our family dropped the subscription to the periodical in 2018.
