World Press Photo launches competition archive
October 5th, 2009Posted by Laura Oliver in Photography
Photojournalism body World Press Photo has launched an online archive of more than 10,000 images from 50 years of its annual photography competition.
The archive can be searched by categories, year or alphabetical list of prize winners.
“It includes photos that have become icons, by some of the leading names in the profession. World Press Photo has put them online with the aim of sharing our knowledge, resources and experience with the widest possible network,” says the site.
A great resource and way to see how trends in photojournalism have changed over the last half-century.
