The Wonder of a Nature Photo
Briefly

The Wonder of a Nature Photo
"This is an edition of The Wonder Reader, a newsletter in which our editors recommend a set of stories to spark your curiosity and fill you with delight. Sign up here to get it every Saturday morning. One of my highlights of the past year has been receiving your weekly emails with photos that spark a sense of awe in the world around you."
"In reviewing your submissions, I've most enjoyed seeing how the beholder's mind works. Sometimes it's the subtle beauty of a scene or a moment that you all focus on-the mischievous look in the eye of a person or an animal rather than the stunning vista they might be standing in front of. I find that same sense of personality and whimsy in so many of the photos that our editor Alan Taylor compiles."
A selection of photographic essays presents historical curiosities, early-autumn scenes across the Northern Hemisphere, and orbital views from the International Space Station. The collection highlights stunt diving, inventions, unusual war training, giant household objects, scenes from daily life, auroras, moonsets, and the Milky Way. Editor Alan Taylor compiles images that emphasize personality and whimsy in people and animals, often focusing on subtle moments rather than grand vistas. Reader-submitted photos that evoke a sense of awe are featured, including a submission from Val M., age 74, from Anchorage, Alaska.
