Don’t throw away your shot—literally!
In honor of Earth Day, National Geographic is offering the chance to feature your best nature-themed image on their “Your Shot” Instagram page. The event is being pitched as less of a formal competition and just a great way to honor the best wildlife photography on the planet, for the planet.
The process is easy: Just post an image using the hashtag #NatGeoYourShotOurHOME between now and April 22nd. Prolific filmmaker Bertie Gregory and a handful of Nat Geo editorial staff will select their favorite shots and share on the Your Shot Instagram page on April 30th.
