Una dintre cele mai impresionante colecţii de fotografii. World Press Photo Contest 2007. Totul de la război la fotbal, din Haiti în Sri Lanka, de la singuraticii din Tokio la street dancerii Parisului. O lume plină de toate suferinţele scăpate din cutia Pandorei, dar în care şi speranţa îşi face, timid ce-i drept, loc.

Young Lebanese drive down a street in Haret Hreik, a bombed neighborhood in southern Beirut, Lebanon, on August 15. For nearly five weeks Israel had been targeting that part of the city and towns across southern Lebanon in a campaign against Hezbollah militants. As a ceasefire gradually came into force from August 14, thousands of Lebanese began to return to their homes. According to the Lebanese government, 15,000 homes and 900 commercial concerns were damaged.
