World Press Photo Exhibition
Last Sunday Jip and Janneke visited a church in Utrecht. Well, not really because of the Sunday (I tell you a secret they are not very religious persons...) but more because this church gave the place for the World Press Photo Exhibition. Everywhere in the world you can see it because this is an itirenant exhibition. They organise it in every year. (www.worldpressphoto.nl)
Just a good advise, if you don't watch horror and criminal movies on the TV because you can't stand blood and sad strories do not visit this exhibition! It's about our reality. The world where we live....
From a photographical point of view there are some very beautiful and well composed photos. In some case it's clear that the creators just caught the perfect moment for a photo which tell much more than they thought...
But on the other hand exept some sport photos all of them are about criminality, wars, poverty. Actually it is a press photo exhibition so you can see what you watch every day on the news.... My questuin is what would happen if once somebody did a news program full of positive information and stories??? I don't think about gossip programs but more about positive examples and actions around us. I am wondering people would like it or they just switch off the TV with a sentence that 'Oh, this is boring!'
