Manhattan blackout by Iwan Baan
I took
this from a helicopter, after the storm in New York, as we flew over
Manhattan. It was a two-day scramble to organise it and to get across
the city, since nothing was working – the tunnels and bridges were
closed, there was no transportation. It was a cold, three-hour
helicopter ride to and from the city. So when I took the picture I was
trying to direct the pilot while I was freezing. It was essentially the
water that knocked out the power. I thought it was important to show it
in that way – it made us realise how fragile we are against nature and
water. Photograph: Iwan Baan
After the storm, Gandia by Pedro Armestre
On
29 September I saw on the news that a tornado had ripped through the
east of Spain. When I saw the intensity of the devastation I decided to
travel there. Gandia is about 400km from Madrid, where I live. It was
festival time and usually it is filled with people, lights, music and
laughter. But this time it was different. The situation was quite
strange: the creaking of twisted metal, the debris after the tornado,
and everything closed and empty. It was so bleak. I exchanged a few
words with the man in the picture; he said that they had lost
everything. Photograph: Pedro Armestre/AFP
One small step by Red Bull Stratos
On 14
October Austrian skydiver Felix Baumgartner jumped into the record books
when he plunged to Earth from a balloon floating on the edge of space.
The 43-year-old travelled 24 miles up in the balloon wearing a specially
designed survival suit, before leaping to the ground in New Mexico.
This photograph, taken by the camera aboard his capsule, catches him as
he steps out into space. Before he leapt Baumgartner said: “Sometimes
you have to go up really high to see how small you are.” On his way
down, he broke the sound barrier, at one point travelling at 833.9 miles
an hour. Photograph: Red Bull Stratos
Bombs over Aleppo by Maysun
I’ve covered
other conflicts, but never an open war like this in Syria. There was a
strong battle between the Syrian army and the rebels, with the army
bombing the whole neighbourhood with heavy artillery shelling. I took
the picture very carefully on the rooftop, as army snipers were
shooting on the street. I was wearing a bulletproof vest and ballistic
helmet. They help, but won’t save you if you get bombed. I think this
photograph shows the horror that exists in Syria. When I see the picture
today I feel anger and even more sadness about everything that was and
still is happening in Syria. Photograph: Maysun/EPA
Athens flag day by Aris Messinis
This was
the last pre-election speech of Antonis Samaras, the Greek conservative
party’s leader, before they won in June. You can see the enthusiasm
among the young supporters as they wave their flags and light flares.
The light was nice and it makes a beautiful picture, but when I look at
it I see something different. I see Greek people still supporting an old
style of party politics when we need something new. The majority of
people here vote for their own personal interest, and not the interest
of the country. If this does not change, we will be in the same
situation for years. Photograph: Aris Messinis/AFP
Horse runs through fire by Jasper Juinen
Every
January, on the eve of St Anthony’s day, to celebrate the patron saint
of animals, horses are ridden through bonfires to clear them of bad
spirits. It is held in San Bartolomé de Pinares, a little village in
central Spain, on top of a mountain. The horses are not scared – or at
least they don’t look scared. They are kept wet so they don’t catch
fire. While I was shooting I saw the horse was going to go straight
through the fire, and I knew the moment was good and it would make a
great image. He looks so brave. Photograph: Jasper Juinen
Jamaica's speed kings by Olivier Morin
Usain
Bolt, Yohan Blake and Warren Weir [who had just won gold, silver and
bronze] were on their lap of honour after the 200m final at the
Olympics. We saw them coming towards us on their lap of honour, and
called to them. They posed for just about a second before they moved on,
and I took the shot. I like it because it’s the story of those three
athletes. I think you can see the relief in their faces, after the
effort. It’s the emotional side of sport. Photograph: Olivier Morin/AFP/Getty Images #
Election night by Matthew Rourke
This was
shot at the end of Obama’s speech during the election night party – you
can see the confetti coming down. The crowd were mesmerised by his
words. The first thing I saw when I turned round from the stage was the
woman at the centre of the picture – you couldn’t miss her smile, she
was beaming, just glowing. The woman next to her looks like she is in a
snowstorm and is feeling the magic that happens when the first flakes
come down. Everyone was just elated at what they had helped make happen.

Yida refugee camp by John Stanmeyer
In
the Yida refugee camp in South Sudan there were 60,000 displaced people
and a malnutrition crisis, with three to five children dying everyday. I
spent a week in the camp, and met the family of Hassan, who had died
overnight of complications from malaria. I spent half a day with them as
they carried out the final ablutions of the Islamic tradition, bathing
the body and carrying it to a makeshift grave. The picture is more of a
vignette. The whole family is involved in burying their loved one. The
picture reminds you that we are all part of the earth and we return to
it. Photograph: John Stanmeyer/VII
The masked women by Chi Yin Sim
I was in
Qingdao, China for the New York Times. There had been reports of Chinese
women wearing masks because they were obsessed with keeping their skin
fair. In traditional Chinese society, being dark is not considered
beautiful. A woman was coming out of the water with a mask on and I just
thought: “Oh My God!” – she looked like Spiderwoman. But the women
wearing them were very blasé; they just saw it as part of their
swimming costume. The picture was widely circulated – it got more
attention that any of my political photographs from China, just because
they look so bizarre. Photograph: Sim Chi Yin/New York Times/Redux /Eyevine
Floods in Hoboken by Brendan Smialowski
I
had heard about the taxis, and it was certainly an image that
illustrates the devastation of Hurricane Sandy within the New York area,
because the yellow cab is so iconic. It was taken from a viaduct in
Hoboken [New Jersey], a day or so after the hurricane passed through.
The water level had receded. What you see is a very subtle mirror
reflection of a beautiful puffy sky. I guess it’s a magnetic image: the
beautiful immaculate new yellow cabs and this dark reflection. They are
clear, bold colours – a contrast to the other pictures I had taken of
mud and devastation. Photograph: Brendan Smialowski/AFP
The Obamas by Jim Watson
It is hard to
keep political photographs interesting. I took this when Michelle Obama
had just introduced the president at a campaign event in Iowa. It shows a
personal side of them that you don’t get to see very often, but this
embrace seemed very genuine and real to me. A very similar picture was
tweeted from the president’s account [this became the most liked and
retweeted post in social media history] and I ended up being
interviewed about the picture for months and months. People felt it
summed up his campaign – showing a personal, family-values side to him.

Parkour in Gaza by Ali Ali
I took this
picture in Khanyonis town in the south of the Gaza Strip, in a
graveyard. The subject of parkour attracts me, because it is very rare
here and people are not familiar with it. These children are the only
team that do this kind of sport. What I was really interested in was
showing how they do it, and also how extremely happy they are despite
being in a place of death, a graveyard – which seems the only place they
can find joy. It is one of my favourite pictures because it is so
surprising. It was a lovely moment. Photograph: Ali Ali/EPA
The Mobot by Mark Blinch
I took this on Super
Saturday when Team GB won three gold medals. There was a real
electricity in the air, and after Mo Farah won the men’s 10,000m final
it was a great atmosphere. People were just cheering so loudly, and then
when they played God Save the Queen and everyone was singing, it gave
you chills. You can see how happy he looks – exhausted, but happy.
Taking pictures of athletics is great because it’s something everyone
knows the rules to, so it’s the big event. Photograph: Mark Blinch/Retuers
Woman in laser burqa by Seamus Murphy
I
took this picture in February this year. I had been working on a project
about Afghan women’s poetry and was trying to find images that were not
the usual misery pictures of women in Afghanistan. I discovered this
underpass in the city; a dark area with a little shop that was pumping
out these lasers, and I wondered how they would look on a woman walking
by in a burqa. I think the shot works because of the element of
surprise. It’s trying to subvert not the burqa itself, but the image of
the burqa, because I’m bored of the cliches around it. Photograph: Seamus Murphy/VII
The hunter hunted by Dan Kitwood
There
were a lot of photographers outside Southwark crown court [when Rebekah
Brooks was charged with conspiring to pervert the course of justice on
22 June]. I wanted a shot with the press pack around her, so I
positioned my stepladders around the back of her car and chose my
wide-angle lens. I used a slower shutter speed than I would normally, to
increase my chances of catching someone else’s flash. I feel it can add
extra drama. It was all over very quickly. It’s not perfect, but I was
happy to have achieved what I set out to do. The hunter had become the
hunted. Photograph: Dan Kitwood
Milk protest, Brussels by Yves Herman
I
took this in November. About 2,000 farmers came to Brussels to
demonstrate and spray milk on the European parliament. They wanted to
bring 1,000 tractors, but couldn’t get them into the square. Still, they
had 50, which was impressive. The building was surrounded by riot
police, so the farmers used big hoses to cover them in thousands of
litres of milk. It was really smelly. The farmers weren’t there to smash
things, just to make sure people noticed them. The story behind the
picture isn’t funny because people are suffering, but it is funny to see
the police flooded with milk. Photograph: Yves Herman/Reuters
Syrian snipers by Javier Manzano
This was
taken in the Karmal Jabl neighbourhood in central Aleppo – which locals
are now calling little Stalingrad. A lot of the fighting by both sides
is now done by sniper. They punch walls through homes to create tunnels
to unite them so they can move around undetected. I underexposed the
picture slightly because I wanted the light coming in on the right – it
was lighting the soldier’s face really nicely. I like how the rays of
light coming through the bullet and shrapnel holes come towards you and
draw you back into events. I also think it shows what Aleppo has become.

Tour de France by Scott Mitchell
I met
Bradley in Spain a few years ago and we hit it off straight away. At the
start of this year Sky asked me to join them [to photograph the team in
the tour]. It was a real privilege to be there when history was made.
This was the first British winner. I think it works because you can see
the camaraderie between the eight riders, summed up in the way they are
holding each other’s shoulders and looking at each other. It shows that,
although this is a professional sport, it is about friendship. They
are like brothers in arms, really. There was only 20 seconds when they
are all in a line - but I liked the haphazard nature of this shot. My
only regret with it is you can only just see the eight rider. I never
really thought this was one of my best, but looking at it in hindsight
it's a nice shot. Sometimes you get a nice surprise. Photograph: Scott Mitchell
