The Press Photographer's Year 2008

With a 25% increase in the entries this year, the jury spent two long days working through the 7,500 photographs, both in slideshow form, and as C-type prints, laid out on the huge Olivier foyer floor at the National Theatre.

A final edit of 146 photographs has been made and 13 prizes have been awarded. What follows is the winners list and a web gallery of the complete edit that will feature in the book and exhibition. This is "The Press Photographer's Year 2008".

To start the slideshow from the beginning click on the "Photograph of the Year", the other winning picture links will take you to that part of the slideshow, where it will then continue from that point on.
