Conform to the fine-print-details of your license! Consult a lawyer. If an expert says your use on Medium is defensible on legal grounds, you can "counter-notify" Medium, which may restore access unless/until National Geographic chooses to sue you. On the other hand, if the license contract has definitions and requirements that might not be satisfied by appearance on Medium, just publish the article someplace that conforms to the requirements. Blurb/link (without the photos) from medium and other places. You don't need to die on the 'Medium' hill, there's plenty of ways to get your news out.
