• Photo by Michael Yamashita. @yamashitaphoto. Tsukiji Fish Market: Early morning light turns water into fire as fishmongers hose down the catch of tuna. 20 years ago when this photograph was taken, hundreds of tuna covering hundreds of meters of the fish market floor were on display and the auction took hours. I visited recently and found less than 10 meters of fish displayed behind ropes barring any access for a closeup. Sad future for the blue fin tuna. #Tsukiji #Tokyo #Japan #bluefin @thephotosociety @natgeocreative by natgeo http://ift.tt/1hlayqt

• Photo by @petekmuller/@prime_collective. A view of the #lava lake at the top of Mount #Nyiragongo in the eastern Democratic Republic of #Congo. The levels of visible #lava fluctuate but when they are high, this crater holds the largest lava lake in the world. From the crater’s rim, where this picture was taken, one can hear the distant roar of gas explosions and lava movement below. One can also feel the heat and smell the gases from hundreds of feet above. This was the first time I’d seen lava first hand and I was in awe of its truly radiant color. Viewing it expanding my understanding appreciation for the color spectrum in the natural world. #volcano #Africa #DRC #RDC #Virunga #Virunganationalpark #adventure #hiking #climbing #nature #beauty #photooftheday #picoftheday #instadaily by natgeo http://ift.tt/1gdAJhX

• Photo by @stefanounterthiner | I’ve photographed many species of primates and the Hanuman langur is among my favourites. They are so funny and playful, particularly the juveniles; pulling the tail is their prefer playing. I took this shot while on assignment for National Geographic Magazine in the Thar desert (Rajasthan, India). @natgeo @thephotosociety #monkey #desert #wildlife #play #India by natgeo http://ift.tt/1Eb2BJs

• Photograph by @paulnicklen for @natgeo while #onassignment // Like a ghost in the night, a wild orca graces me with her presence in the cold, dark seas of northern Norway. While remembering powerful encounters like this, we can’t help but think about the 40 Southern Resident orcas captured in Washington State, the 13 orcas killed during the captures, and in honor of Lolita, the sole survivor. 45 years ago over 100 orcas were herded into Penn Cove. The young ones were netted and hauled onto trucks for theme parks worldwide. All but one had died by 1987 but incredibly she is still alive. They call her Lolita and August 2015 marks the 45th anniversary of Lolita’s capture from her family in Penn Cove off Whidbey Island, WA. Lolita still lives at the Miami Seaquarium while her mother most likely still swims wild. With @sea_legacy @cristinamittermeier. Please #follow me on @paulnicklen to see my latest art series of orcas and whales and the stories that go with them. #Blackfish #orca #exploreBC #keepitwild #gratitude #beauty #nature #FreeLolita @natgeocreative @thephotosociety @picoftheday by natgeo http://ift.tt/1T7QUKo

• Bret Adee opens one of his 72,000 beehives in the desert in southern California. Bret and his brother run the largest beekeeping operation in the world, which was started by their grandfather. These bees spent the summer collecting pollen and honey in South Dakota and can survive on their stored food for months until the almond bloom starts in early February. Because almonds bloom so early and they are planted in orchards that don’t have habitat for other pollinators, they depend on honeybees for production. To learn more about this process, check out @anandavarma. Photo by Anand Varma on assignment for @natgeo. #beekeeper #honeybees #onassignment @thephotosociety by natgeo http://ift.tt/1MTGtuj

• Photo by @stephenwilkes: A mother elephant watches over her young calf as they make their way to a nearby watering hole in the Serengeti. Elephants are very protective of their young–while traveling, calves often grab hold of the tails of their mothers, and the entire herd will keep watch to make sure the little ones stay out of harms way. A short time ago, I traveled to Africa to shoot a new #DayToNight for @natgeo—over the next few weeks, I will be sharing the photos I took along the way. #Africa #Serengeti #Elephants #Family #travel #onassignment #NatGeo by natgeo http://ift.tt/1KUh6Jo

• This is the ear bone of a whale, I shot this picture while working on the evolution of Whales story for @NatGeo. The size and shape are very similar to human and our other relatives. The evolution of mammalian auditory ossicles is one of the most well-documented and important evolutionary events, transitional forms as well as an excellent example of adaptation, the re-purposing of existing structures during evolution. Over the course of the evolution of mammals, one lower and one upper jaw bone lost their purpose in the jaw joint and were put to new use in the middle ear. The mammalian middle ear contains three tiny bones known as the ossicles: malleus, incus, and stapes (hammer, anvil, and stirrup respectively). The ossicles (all three bones) are a complex system of levers whose functions include: reducing the amplitude of the vibrations; increasing the mechanical force of vibrations; and thus improving the efficient transmission of sound energy from the eardrum to the inner ear structures. The details of these structures and their effects vary noticeably between different mammal species, even when the species are as closely related as humans and chimpanzees.#EvidenceofEvolution #Evolution #whales @robertclarkphoto @thephotosociety @instituteartist by natgeo http://ift.tt/1Mc0lK0
