I believe many people are amazed by the world captured under the cameras of news reporters. Many photos are taken at the risk of their lives. A lot of wonderful moments last only a few brief seconds, and it's extremely difficult to capture these moments. I remember a story about the selection of the world's best news pictures. It tells of a news reporter who committed suicide after winning first prize for one of his photos. I'm not sure about this story, but I've heard it. Why did he commit suicide? The reason is that the news photo he took was of an African boy on the verge of starvation, with a vulture standing nearby, waiting for the child to die and then eat his flesh. After winning the award, he deeply condemned his own conscience for not stepping up to save the child at the time. Regardless of his character, just the image he captured is heart-wrenching. Today, here we offer some of the best photo blogs and websites where you can view news images captured in real-time by professional photojournalists. But not all news websites are willing to provide photo resources, so these websites are definitely worth checking out.
