World press photo of the year

 I just saw the winner photo of the year for the world press photo contest.The photographer's name is Samuel Aranda.Omggg it's amazing!!How a person can capture everything in a picture,in a moment!
 A woman is holding her injured son during the demonstration in Sanaa,Yemen, on 15th October against president Ali Abdullah Saleh.
 The comment of the judge Koyo Kouo was that "It's a photo that talks about the entire region. It talks about Yemen,Agypt,Tynese,Lybia,Syria and about everything that happened during the Arabic spring. But it also shows a personal side of what happened. And it shows the role of women not only for the care they offered ,but also women being energetic parts of the movement".

 I agree with the judge! Well done mr Aranda! Thank you!!
 Sincerely,
