George Steinmetz took this photograph for National Geographic. This could be one of the best photographs for 2011. Look closely as you may be surprised what exactly you are focused on.
This shot was taken at sunset and if you look closely you will see dark lines or spots under the "camels". What you think are camels are really shadows and what are dark lines are really the camels. Amazing what perspective will do for you!
Since his first assignment for National Geographic in 1987, Steinmetz has completed more than 20 major essays for the magazine, including three covers.
Born in Beverly Hills, California, in 1957, Steinmetz graduated from Stanford University with a degree in geophysics. He began his career in photography by hitchhiking through Africa for 18 months. Today he lives in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, with his wife and their three children.
