50 Greatest Photographs of National Geographic

This exhibition of the 50 greatest photographs of National Geographic opened today in Upper Hutt, and it an absolute must see. What amazed me was how may of the photos were snapped in the moment, unexpectedly and some photographers not even realising they had taken such great images until months later looking through contact prints. This image below by James Nachtwey was a clear stand out for me. It took my breath away.
