The Greatest Wildlife Photographs

Experience some of the most surprising animal behavior through the very best wildlife pictures from the pages of National Geographic Magazine.

Curated by renowned nature picture editor, Kathy Moran, this exhibition is a celebratory look at wildlife with images taken by National Geographic’s most iconic photographers, such as Michael “Nick” Nichols, Steve Winter, Paul Nicklen, Beverly Joubert, David Doubilet, and more. Showcasing the evolution of photography, the images convey how innovations such as camera traps, remote imaging, and underwater technology have granted photographers access to wildlife in their natural habitat. The Greatest Wildlife Photographs will remain open at the Momentary through June 7, 2026.

For 115 years, National Geographic has pioneered and championed the art of wildlife photography and captivated generations of engaged audiences with a steady stream of extraordinary images of animals in nature. From the very first such image to appear—a white-tailed reindeer in 1903—National Geographic Society’s publications have broken new ground and pushed the bar higher again and again, establishing an unmatched legacy of artistic, scientific, and technical achievement. These are the Greatest Wildlife Photographs.
