Throughout the years the photographers working at National Geographic have consistently brought us incredible images of faraway places and people, showing us amazing details of life around the globe. Every year Nat Geo has a photo contest, and this year the winners will be announced tomorrow, December 15. Here are a few of the finalist photos that stood out to me, and I must admit, I am irritated that I didn’t take any of them. Enjoy!

This last one is taken after the floooding in Pakistan in 2010. Millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters. Pretty much freaked me out too.

now IM irritated too LOL. But more that I haven’t had the opportunity to travel to these amazing places! These are amazing! Thanks for sharing them.
NG photographers are so amazing! I love that first one
Wow, I love these photos, cool
That last photo is freaky-scary!
Gorgeous images!
Beautiful images.
That first one is so incredible! I’d love to take one like that some day.
And that last one is beyond freaky. I stared at it for a few minutes before I read your caption telling myself those weren’t spider webs, just a net over the tree… I wish.
Wow! These are stunning!!
That first photo is AWESOME…..absolutely my favorite!
