Check the below links for some wonderful photographs. National Geographic's International Photography Contest 2009 National Geographic's International Photography Contest attracts thousands of entries from photographers of all skill levels around the world every year. While this year's entry deadline has passed, there is still time to view and vote for your favorites in the Viewer's Choice competition. National Geographic was kind enough to let me choose a few of their entries from 2009 for display here on The Big Picture. Collected below are 25 images from the three categories of People, Places and Nature. Captions were written by the individual photographers. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/11/national_geographics_internati.html 2009 in photos The year 2009 is now coming to a close, and it's time to take a look back over the past 12 months through photographs. Historic elections were held in Iran, India and the United States, some wars wound down while others escalated, China turned 60, and the Berlin Wall was remembered 20 years after it came down. Each photo tells its own tale, weaving together into the larger story of 2009. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/12/2009_in_photos_part_1_of_3.html http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/12/2009_in_photos_part_2_of_3.html Part 3 coming tomorrow On the shoreline We humans are drawn to the shore, with some 40% of the world's population living within 100 kilometers of a coast. Coastal areas have made recent news with the arrival of several storms, concerns about rising sea levels and other environmental and conservation efforts. Collected here are a handful of photographs from around the world of people and animals at the shoreline, playing, working, struggling or relaxing on the border between land and sea. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/11/on_the_shoreline.html For more interesting photos, go to http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/
