Unicef photo of the year

The winner, and the runners ups are all amazing photos, with amazing stories. But check out the honourable mentions too (you can see more pics and read the stories by clicking on the link below the photos.)

What amazing stories, and amazing photos. Jonathan Torgovnik's pictures of mothers with children born through rape during the Rwandan genocide are incredibly moving, Renée C. Byer's pictures of a mother and son going through his time with inoperable cancer are both joyful and intensely sad - the one of him in the wheelchair with a big smile on his face - wow. Finbarr O`Reilly's pictures and stories of the children in a home for children with polio are more uplifting that you'd think.

It really brings it home, how good we really have it here. I think I'm broke - but I can afford food, and a warm home with THINGS around me, I'm safe and healthy.

I really ought to appreciate that more often than I do.
