About "National Geographic: The World Around Us"
Welcome to "National Geographic: The World Around Us"! The concept behind this group, as with many other Flickr groups, is to provide a forum for individuals to display photos in the style of National Geographic Magazine. This group is not in any way affiliated to National Geographic other than it being a source of artistic inspiration. You do not have to display the skill of a National Geographic photographer, but only the inner desire to spotlight "The World Around Us". We encourage individuals to give "constructive" criticism and comments to others regarding their photos. Hopefully this group, as it's inspiration, will be educational for all member's.


How do I join?
First and foremost you must be a member of Flickr. Once you have obtained your Flickr membership then click the link, "Join This Group", to the right. Then simply follow the prompts.
