Taking great pictures is not easy, and anybody who has had to go the extra mile for a perfect shot knows it. These hard-working photographers worked hard and put in a fantastic amount of effort to take great photos, and the results show that excellent images require some bravery and perseverance on behalf of photographers.
These great photos all capture a moment that is perfectly timed. Whether it was artistic or political, each great picture tells the story of the photographer who was behind the camera at that moment.
These 16 extraordinary photographs took an immense amount of effort from artists who aren't only trying to express their vision but share the special wonders of the world with a wider audience. They say that a picture's worth a thousand words. However, these photos mean so much more than that, not only in the regard of their content but also in the regard of the people behind the camera who were willing to go out there and sometimes put themselves in danger to capture an incredible image.
1. This image, captured by Indonesian photographer Okka Supardan, must've required a great amount of patience as well as timing. However, it paid off by capturing the action, suspense, and effort in only one shot.
2. This photo, named “Full Moon Service,” was shot and edited by a Swedish photographer called Erik Johansson. Not only would it have taken a sharp eye, but also expert Photoshop skills.
3. This picture was taken during a political crisis in Caracas, Venezuela. The photographer, Ariana Cubillos, told The Guardian “There was so much going on at that moment – I only had a second to take the picture.”
4. This photograph depicts Mauli Dhan, a Nepalese honey hunter, who climbs a precarious rope ladder to retrieve hallucinogenic honey from a cliffside hive.

5. Photographer Justin Hofman captured this stunning image by essentially swimming through garbage. It proves how much waste has made its way into our oceans.
6. This is another surreal shot, captured and edited by Erik Johansson. The composition of this unique photo seems like the works of MC Escher must have inspired the photographer.
7. This classic image, captured by Cecilia Wessels, made the rounds on the internet shortly after she posted it on Facebook. Her husband was apparently pretty brave to do yard work with a tornado raging nearby.
8. This beautiful photo of a Weddell seal under the Antarctic ice was taken during one of the deepest dives ever under the frozen continent.

9. Participants in the bulls' running prepare themselves for the rushing animal in Pamplona, Spain. Photographer Jesus Diges got too close to danger for this shot.
10. Great photographs are often a result of perfect timing. For instance, this picture of volcanic lightning during an eruption in Mexico must have taken a lot of diligence and patience.

11. Is taking a beautiful picture worth getting this close to a great white shark? Maybe it is because the image is impressive (and also a little bit scary).

12. Photographer Carl De Keyzer was given access and permission to take photos while in North Korea, which is not easy to acquire. His images of the little-seen nation are stunning.
13. Cory Richards, who snapped this picture in Africa, put himself in harm’s way since hippos are among the most dangerous and aggressive animals on Earth.
