• Photo by @jimmy_chin Writer @m_synnott climbing deep in the Tetons. Despite a low snow year, we managed to climb and ski the big lines off most of the iconic summits in the Teton skyline this winter. Always a joy to be with @m_synnott out there. The worse the going gets, the more he makes you laugh. It’s a great trait for a partner in the mountains. Shot on assignment for @natgeo. @thephotosociety by natgeo http://ift.tt/1PkZXXd

• Photo: @stevewinterphoto #Singapore, I’m bringing my National Geographic Live! talk “My Nine Lives” to the Esplanade Concert Hall on August 25th. I will be taking you “in the field”, sharing stories about working with the Big Cats of the world. Tickets are still available so come join me! Tickets at http://ift.tt/1NsG1Dn I’ve just finished shooting my worldwide #leopard story, for @natgeo showcasing the world’s most adaptable, but persecuted, big cat, as well as a Nat Geo Wild show. I covered leopards from the wilds of #SouthAfrica to the heart of #Mumbai and most recently Sir Lanka. Using a remote camera (a.k.a camera trap) I was able to get this image of a female and cub that are part of the Munyawana Leopard Project in #Phinda #South Africa – the longest running leopard project in the world. One of my goals with my photography is to help raise awareness about the plights facing these beautiful animals. National Geographic Big Cats Initiative goal is to also raise awareness and implement change to the dire situation facing them. So take the time and visit CauseAnUproar.org for ways to become involved in saving big cats!

• A photo by @mattiasklumofficial While diving in the Galapagos you can easily bumb in to marine iguanas like this one. The marine iguana can be found only on the Galápagos Islands and it has the ability, unique among modern lizards, to forage in the sea, making it a marine reptile. (Please go to @mattiasklumofficial to see these sea dragons up close!) The marine iguanas are sometimes dangerously cold after grazing algae at dephts down to nearly 10 meters (30 or more feet). #galapagos #cool #cold #mattiasklum #photooftheday #marineiguana #conservation #protectouroceans #iucn #wwf @natgeo @thephotosociety @mattiasklumcollection @natgeocreative by natgeo http://ift.tt/1EBG9cD

• Photo @coryrichards words by @md_jenkins “When I reach the ridge and push my ice-crusted face into the sun, it’s like poking my head into heaven. The sudden warmth renews my hope. I pull my body onto the ridge, and a blanket of sunlight envelops me. After the dark, soul-sucking cold of the north face, it feels like rebirth. Renan and Cory have dropped over the ridge to get out of the wind and discovered a stone platform hanging above the south face. The sun is spread over the rock like honey. “Lunch ledge!” I bellow, christening our aerie. Within minutes I’ve got our tiny stove roaring. Renan takes off his boots and begins rubbing his toes. Cory gets out his camera and begins snapping pictures. After more than a week of climbing, this is the first time we can actually see the summit: a steep, shining pyramid of snow. But we can also see what we have left to climb: a menacing, serrated ridge of rock and snow, guarded by a dozen dagger-like pinnacles.” The story of the Myanmar expedition is out now in the new @natgeo !

• photo by @randyolson | words by @neilshea13 — In those days we ate many more animals, including hippos and crocodiles and most of all perch, biggest and best of the lake fish. We hunted by mood and season and men often went below water with their spears, walking the mud-bottom, stirring up creatures for the cook-fires. Hunters learned to hold their breath and open their eyes, to join the water-world and forget for a while the world of air. Sinking and staying under took skill. Stalking was real labor. At some point nets arrived, making fishing easier and men no longer went down so much. A net-caster hauls five times what his grandfather did, though it’s true that every day more nets are cast and fewer and smaller fish come in. As for hippos, none has been seen for a generation. Even crocodiles are now protected by law. But—God! The big ones. Perch the size of men, so large even crocodiles didn’t know how to eat them. Spears were made for such monsters! At night, under the star called Kooy, they’d swim into the shallows and a man could walk among them, using the full moon for a guide. He’d see them gliding in, see the trembling wakes, the great tails sweeping. Everything silent but the waves. He’d wait. Let the fish come near. Then stab! He’d aim for gills or head, a sure shot, for a badly-stricken fish might race off and die beyond reach in the deep. A few men still hunt this way, though no one can say it is very practical. Most spears are now laid up with rust and or have been sold to tourists and those fish, those legends, we have already forgotten their names. These Instagram pieces are part of our ongoing project, #NGwatershedstories, and they’re linked to our feature article on Kenya’s Lake Turkana in the August issue of @natgeo magazine. For the last six years, we’ve been documenting culture, change, and conflict in the ecosystem that connects southern Ethiopia and northern Kenya, and we hope you’ll join us @randyolson and @neilshea13 as we follow water down the desert. #2014 #africa #kenya #laketurkana #jadesea #elmolo #fish #fishing #huntergatherer #tradition #documentary #everydayafrica #everydayeverywhere @thephotosociety @geneticislands by natgeo http://ift.tt/1LgxLqx

• Photo taken by @stevemccurryofficial // On the edge of the Thar Desert is Jodhpur, once the capital of a princely state. Its medieval quarter, surrounded by a ten-kilometer wall, is a maze of alleyways, often only wide enough for a man or a cow to pass. There are no cars or motorcycles, only vendors hawking their wares on foot. The old city is blue. Local guides say that the blue wash of the houses originally indicated the homes of the upper-caste Brahmins, custodians of holy places and the written word. Others contradict this, saying buildings used to be painted white, before the discovery that copper sulfate added to the white-lime-wash- turning it blue- deterred nesting termites. Whichever version is true, the color caught on. Varieties of blue, from royal blue to aquamarine, form the backdrop for a theatre of colour played out its streets, contrasting with the parched landscape of the surrounding desert. by natgeo http://ift.tt/1LgGTeL

• Photo: @stevewinterphoto. Had a full house last night at the Sydney Opera House for my NG Live presentation -#Sydney thank you for showing up and all the positive reviews! I photographed this #baby #elephant with her mother in Sri Lanka while #onassignment for my upcoming @NatGeo story on #leopards, due out in the December issue. Every 15 minutes an #elephant is killed for its ivory. We need to make owning ivory an act unbecoming of a civilized people. We need to all become people who respect the lives of elephants and their right to walk this earth as they have for 1000’s of years – free and safe from harm by humans. Please check out the new @natgeo TRACKING IVORY cover story – incredible and important reporting by Bryan Christy with exceptional images by #BrentStirton. Here are some organizations that are making strides in protecting elephants: The Nature Conservancy in Africa (@nature_africa), The Nature Conservancy (@nature_org), The Northern Rangelands Trust (@nrt_kenya) Lewa Wildlife Conservancy (@lewa_wildlife) http://ift.tt/1CkG6lE http://ift.tt/16NUfKa I’ve been touring with NatGeo Live, presenting my My Nine Lives talk about my experiences photographing #BigCats, many of which are endangered. National Geographic launched the Big Cats Initiative to raise awareness and implement change to the dire situation facing big cats.

• Photo by @edkashi/ @viiphoto: The Golden Quadrilateral Highway project is one of India’s largest and most ambitious infrastructure projects that took nearly 2 decades to complete. This super highway connects the four major cities of India: New Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai. As the number of vehicles traveling on this infrastructure continues to increase, #emissions like Carbon Dioxide and Methane also increase. According to Climate Progress, as carbon emissions continue to increase, “heat events once considered extreme would become relatively common…A searing and continuing heat wave in India has so far killed more than 2,300 people, making it the 5th deadliest in recorded world history.” @everydayclimatechange #heatwave #india #climatechange #emissions #transportation #highway by natgeo http://ift.tt/1Lh84pZ
