World Press Photo 2007
Due to the age of this exhibition the image(s) quality may be low.
The best press photos from the world's largest annual press photography contest.
Every year since 1956 has seen a contest and a winning image. Some of the photos have become iconic - a naked girl running after a napalm attack in Vietnam; a Buddhist monk who has set himself alight; a sole demonstrator standing in front of tanks on Tiananmen Square. Others have set trends, established styles of press photography that can be seen re-emerging in years to come.
See the winning shots in News, Sports, Daily Life, Portraits, Arts, and Nature. Extraordinary photos often taken in extraordinary circumstances.
Co-hosted with the Tauranga festival. Sponsored by TrustPower.
