14 Kids Who Amazed The World And Won The National Geographic’s Photography Contest For Kids
National Geographic has just announced the winners of its annual International Photo Contest for Kids, an event reserved for camera-holders between 6 and 14. If you're expecting to see an amateur, off-centre gallery of trees and houses, you're in for a shock. These kids are seriously creative, and the shots they captured are worthy of magazine covers. The photos have a unique and peaceful innocence about them that children quite possibly understand best.
The international 1st place winner, Dewi Baggerman from the Netherlands, is headed to Washington, D.C. for a tour of National Geographic headquarters. You can see her entry and those of her 13 fellow winners below.

How do you get these pics? Why can I not have an eye for things like this?
This Is Amazing. Especially as an eleven year old took it.
Wow, I thought for a second that this was CG from a movie like ANTS.

It's a refreshing sight to 'feel' what the child sees, if given the opportunity. Most children haven't been molded by society, they do still possess that innocence of youth. I thank Nat Geo and others like them for giving (and rewarding) the youth of this planet, and encouraging them to look outside the box.
All American winners! Why bother inviting foreigners to enter. My pick would've been the dog on the water from the Netherlands.
Beautiful pictures! I'm not sure I can make those beautiful photos. I'm glad we still have new generations who are talented and also appreciate culture and nature in young age. Thanks to the parents. Keep rise them well
