STORIES STRIKE A chord with us for different reasons – a tragic loss of life, a triumph over adversity, the bonding of a community or an unexplained evil.
This collection of photos from the past 12 months is an emotional mix. Some are happy memories that will stay with the main characters forever – Olympic pretenders beating their heroes, families reunited after war or natural disaster and athletes beating the odds to perform on the greatest stage of all.
Other images show the pain, hunger, loss, poverty and destruction that affects millions of people across the globe everyday. Be it family affairs or international conflict, their struggles have touched us – no matter where in the world they are, no matter if we know them personally or not. It doesn’t even matter whether we can help or hinder.
That is the power of photography.
