National Geographic Kids runs My Shot, an online photo community where kids can submit their nature-related images to the site. Have a look at the breathtaking images, which are now on display at the US vice president’s residence in Washington, D.C.
New sets of photographs will be chosen every month to encourage children to take pictures of nature.
While this is an American competition, I still love the idea of having a platform for kids to share their pictures (PS: there is a local competition, iPhotography, running at the moment, where schoolkids can enter their images to win).
Here are the current top 10:
Ben Alperovitz, 9, Lincoln, Massachusetts
Ann Basu, 17, Los Angeles, California
Jordana Collins, 15, Richmond, Virginia
Lauren Davies, 15, Spotsylvania, Virginia
Anna DePaulis, 15, Flat Rock, Michigan
Elias Harris, 11, Moorhead, Minnesota
Caroline Herzog, 13, Wakefield, Massachusetts
Kristin Jenkins, 13, Dayton, Ohio
Elanor Jorgenson, 17, Lincoln, Nebraska
Hannah Schroter, 16, Huntersville, North Carolina
