World Press Photo 2006

On display at the new National Library.

Thanks to a friend for mentioning this exhibition, otherwise it might have escaped my notice, thus missing out on an impact-ful exhibition.

Even viewing the pictures on their official website brought about raw emotions and critical evaluation of my tiny world view. Can’t wait to visit them later this week.

Personally I can’t imagine myself keeping a firm grip on a camera while taking such beautiful yet tragic photos, which is probably why I’m not a good photographer bah. How does one separate your emotions in the face of tragedy and capture the moment?

A picture really says a thousand words, if not better.
