600 Reutes photojournalists captured important historical moments with their lenses again this year, mainly so that they would not be 'swept under the carpet'. Without the work of these brave people, we would live in complete ignorance. In 2016, Reuters photojournalists even won a Pulitzer Prize, and apparently this inspired them even more, because this year's photos are outstanding.
In the photos that because of of the violence shown often leave a bitter aftertaste, you can especially see the current state of people in parts of the world where wars are raging. Well, they are also very colorful photos of children, which are painted for the holidays, however of young yogis in India and a flock of crabs, which crosses the road.
Outstanding, one way or another!
