Paid content for @Toyota USA | The wild can be anything you need it to be—which is why on her recent trip to Oregon, Nat Geo photographer Jody MacDonald challenged herself to capture the different ways adventure presents itself. "The wild never stays the same, and that’s what makes it the ultimate creative fuel. Fast, slow, chaotic, still. It’s always shifting, always asking you to adapt. That unpredictability is what keeps me inspired as a photographer. Because when the wild is constantly changing, every moment becomes a chance to see differently."

For @Martin Greguơ Jr., a trip to Baja, California was a chance to tell the story of the blue whales. But, it was the humpback whales—captured here during their annual migration to the waters along the equator—that surprised him with the sounds of their community, vital and alive.
