This is the 55th year of the World Press Photo and it consists of about 200 winning entries for the World Press Photo Contest held annually by the World Press Photo Foundation, based in the Netherlands. We held photo exhibition every year. We hope to make people find out how world things really are and use this exhibit as an opportunity to think about peace through these photos.
