if there were no photos taken it probably would not be brought to the world's attention... photos speak louder than any other form of journalism.
From previous years i like this one

some pretty extraordinary pictures. can't say that i favoured any; most were pretty horrific
i saw "harrison's flowers" which is about a few wartime press photographers who go to yugoslavia and take pictures of the war there.. the stories behind the award pictures must be just as, if not even more, interesting/extraordinary
good linkage p4z! |
