Editor & Publisher News Photos of the Year Competition
I have a lot of admiration for press photograpers. It takes a lot of skill to capture a communicative and visually engaging image under challenging conditions and tight deadlines. I don’t have anything to submit, but hey, you guys might :).
The 2009 News Photo of the Year is now open, and deadline is September 14th. Last’s years highly commended entries can be viewed here.
Shiho Fukada is last year’s overall winner, with his photo essay on China’s Sichuan earthquake.
And these are my favourites of the rest.
