每年在荷蘭阿姆斯特丹舉辦的「世界新聞攝影獎(World Press Photo)」競賽萬中選一之作,都會收錄在每年出版的攝影集裡。World Press Photo與普立茲獎、國際年度新聞攝影獎等齊名,都是全球重要的攝影獎項。
“Represents some of the very best work being done around the world today.” —News Photographer
Every year since 1958 an international jury has convened in Holland under the auspices of the World Press Photo Foundation to choose the finest press photographs
of the year. Universally recognized as the definitive competition for photographic reporting, it draws submissions from photojournalists, newspapers, and magazines throughout the world.
Publishing the results of the most recent competition, this book contains the most haunting and inspiring photographs from 2014—some 150 pictures selected from more than 100,000 images
submitted. These prize-winning works are extraordinary not only for their technique but also because they capture the most powerful, moving, and sometimes disturbing moments of the year.
