Congratulation to all the winners!

Did anyone notice that the General News 1st and 2nd place winners, Balazs Gardi and Tim Hetherington shot the same Afghan family and thus probably were embedded together?

for me the sports category threw up some amazing work.that one of the basketball player plunging his fingers into his opponents eyes out decisive moments anything the news boys came up with.

congrats to all… and what a winning shot this year… wow…

that was a great pic; simultaneously foul a guy and make it impossible for him to sink the free throw. damn, that looked painful!

by Akaky | 08 Feb 2008 22:02 | New York , United States |
Well done… One and all…

by J-F Vergel | 08 Feb 2008 22:02 | NYC, United States |
80,000 photos it must have been like looking for a needle in a haystack for the judges!

So a big congrats to the winners! Well deserved folks!

Meet me…

I am the WPP winner for the coming year…

Just became a camera owner and got a pirated CD of photoshop in my bag. And you bet… I am the WPP winner the coming year.

Well… most of the single images at the WPP this year left lot to be desired. Are they strong single images or those that can just be “part” of a story?

The stories looked a little better… but hey… I forgot the use of photoshop here… in a lot of them…

The WPP-Pic of the Year is far from one telling image.

The only one that told something in RECENT years and was strong enough to fit in that category was the winner in 2004 (I think the guy was from Reuters). Reuters the British Agency? where is it missing this year?

Welcome to the WPP awards for commercial photo-shopped photojournalism…

And I do fit in here…

by Camera Owner | 09 Feb 2008 20:02 | Amsterdam, Netherlands |
sucking upon, indeed

Oh, are we bitching…

This year’s WPP is an embarrassment to the judges and organization as a whole. Is cell phone quality photojournalism the wave of the future?

On another note, yes congratulations to those who worked hard and took great, significant images.
