In this article we are presenting this amazing project run by National Geographic where the NATGEO editors will handpick their favorites and publish a story created from publishers pictures and their editor commentary. All these photographs were super amazing but we decide to pick up 30 of them. All these photographs have their own story.
What Jeanne Moddermann saying about Daily Dozen:
“If you’ve been a regular contributor to or viewer of the Daily Dozen, you’ll notice we’ve made some changes. Our biggest change is that we now review every photo submitted to National Geographic’s Your Shot for consideration in the Daily Dozen. This means that if you upload 15 photos to your gallery, those 15 photos will all be reviewed and may be featured in the Daily Dozen.
There is no specific time period for reviewing photos for a day’s Daily Dozen. Our editors may look at a few days’ worth of photos to select the images featured on a particular day. We may include an image on Thursday that you submitted on Tuesday. However, our Daily Dozen editors do not look at all 1.3 million photos on the site each day. If your photo is selected for the Daily Dozen, it will be noted under the “Published” tab on your profile.” ..read more >

Being on this body of ice makes you realize how ephemeral and ever changing even the most solid appearing elements of our surroundings are.
