4 Fascinating Journalistic Photos

2012: Best news photos of the year
This photo is of a Syrian boy waiting to be treated at a hospital after his family's house was shelled. The look on his face conveys so much emotion and heartbreak, and the soldier standing by only adds more gravity to the situation.


This photo of U.S. gymnast Gabrielle Douglas captures so much motion even though it is just a still frame. It makes for a more compelling shot than if she had just been standing on the beam.

This photo does a great job of capturing differing actions in a time of conflict. The police officer on the left is attempting to kick the downed rioter, while the officer in the center is attempting to protect him.
