Nice.

But under "Submit Your Photo" it says:
"National Geographic's mission is to inspire people to care about the planet. What inspires you? Show us: Send in your best photos of the natural world. We'll add them to hundreds of others in Infinite Photograph—As Seen on Earth to create a boundless portrait of our planet."
So I wonder, how politically correct does a photo have to be to qualify as "the natural world"? For instance, will they post a photo of an exploding nuclear weapon? How about a metal scrapyard full of old cars? People who are truly sensitive to Nature would be able to find natural beauty even in such scenes. I personally don't plan on finding out for myself if such pics are in the Infinite Photograph, since it doesn't appear to be searchable, and I could spend days looking without some way to strategize the hunt.

The key is to keep clicking even when it looks like you've reached the end.

You could always try submitting one, see if they give you notification.
