World Press Photo 2009

Quest’anno è la foto dell’italiano Pietro Masturzo a vincere il prestigioso World Press Photo of the Year. Si tratta di una donna che dal suo tetto protesta dopo il risultato, per molti truccato da brogli, delle elezioni iraniane. Dal sito una delle motivazioni ufficiali:

Juror Kate Edwards said: “The photo has a powerful sense of atmosphere, tension, fear – but also of quietness and calm, and in this sense was a challenge as a choice. We were looking for an image that drew you in, took you deeper, made you think more – not just about showing what we already know, but something that asks more of us.”
