The 25th annual National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest is currently accepting submissions of photos, capturing travel portraits, outdoor scenes, spontaneous moments, and places.
Amateur and professional photographers can submit their best pictures until June 30.
National Geographic was kind to share with us some of the recent entries, which feature stunning scenes of wildlife.

An alligator and turtles together in a pond.
"I have seen alligators and turtles together in ponds before, but never like this! I was at Bluebill Pond in Harris Neck NWR when I saw what I thought was an alligator sunning itself on a stump. As I got closer I realized that it was actually perched on the back of a turtle! I wish I had been there to witness how this surprising esprit de corps had came to pass!"
