I love this time of year, when the World Press Photo winners exhibition comes to Sydney. As a budding snapper myself, I look at this as not only inspiration to shoot better, but also a great example of how a picture can tell a thousand words.
This year, each photographer tells the story behind the pic in this great multimedia package. The overall winner, Tim Hetherington, captured an exhausted soldier in Afghanistan, wondering, as the shells burst around him, if he'd ever see his wife again.
Platon's portrait of Russian leader Vladimir Putin which you see here may not be as emotionally charged, but the story behind it is fascinating - a real insight into the man, and the world in which he lives.
I urge you to watch it if you have 10 minutes.
