The 2013 Year in Photography

The first thing I notice in this list is the prevalence of images of catastophies, as the warning mentioned they create an emotional response.  While I do think these are amazing images and very well done, I would like to see more images of positive events as these are just as impactful.

The image that drew me in the most was Taslima Akhter’s Savah Dhaka, Bangladesh, April 24, 2013.  The timing is incredible to make the image speak volumes, I find myself especially drawn to the blood tear.  I like how the image brings human emotion and individuality to the catastrophe, making it more human.
