National Geographic’s photography, evolving through the decades, is embracing the next web with a move into NFTs—and an opportunity to bolster its roster with experimental digital photographers.
Joining existing stars and long-time contributors like Jimmy Chin, Delphine Diallo, and Mike Yamashita, our crew will include artists such as Cath Simard and Mia Forrest, who use composite and post-production techniques to create powerful landscapes and mesmerizing botanical imagery. (Above, Chin’s “Cerro Torre at Sunrise.”)
Photography and innovation have always been at the core of Nat Geo, and as we move into our 135th year we continue to push the boundaries of visual storytelling as far forward as technology allows.
Ahead of Tuesday’s rollout of natgeo.com/NFT, here’s a look at a few of the works we’ll be featuring—as well as this explainer on NFTs themselves.
