National Geographic Expeditions
Photo Contest #2 — Winners
We asked our travelers for photos that captured their experience on a National Geographic Expedition, and the entries came flooding in. A team of National Geographic photographers got together to pick the winning shots. The grand prize winner won a trip for two to Antarctica, and the honorable mentions received a $500 credit toward their next National Geographic Expedition.
