With more than 11 million images in the National Geographic archives,
there is one image that resonates with Maura Mulvihill, senior vice
president and director of the National Geographic Society’s image
collection. While diving off the Auckland Islands in 2007, the
photographer Brian Skerry and his assistant had a chance encounter with
the nearly extinct Southern Right whale.
The allure of the image is in its simplicity: two subjects, one whale, one man, floating in a vastness of blue while inquisitively staring at each other face to face.
This image, along with a collection of more than 900 images from the National Geographic archive, have been published in a new book, "Around the World in 125 Years."
