10 Best Photos From National Geographic Photography Contest 2013
The 2013 National Geographic Photography Contest is now well underway! With over 1,000 entries so far, it's going to be tough for the judges to pick out their favorites. If you'll remember, last year, Ashley Vincent won the top spot for her perfectly timed photo of a tigress in a Thailand zoo shaking off water, sending what looked like millions of water droplets into the air.
As usual, participants can submit photos in any or all of these three categories: People, Places and Nature. The grand prize winner will receive $10,000 and a trip to the National Geographic headquarters in Washington, DC. to participate in the annual National Geographic Photography Seminar in January 2014. The contest ends on November 30th so make sure to enter before it's over.

The picture is captured using a special hide placed to the primeval forest in Finland. High trees offer protection to the brown bear cubs being vitally important to survive from all the dangers around them. Bear cubs are threatened especially by the other male bears, who might attack and take their lives without any doubt. Thus, fast climbing on trees is one of the most important skills for bear cubs in order to survive and they are always ready for it.

This picture was taken during my trip to Hamburg, Germany. When I went to the city center, suddenly I saw 1600 styrofoam panda bear sculptures stand on display in front of Hamburg City Hall by a nature conservation organization. This is part of the campaign to draw the attention to the fact that only 1600 panda bears remain in the wild. The display has traveled to 25 other cities in Germany.
