2 out of 5 stars Well below standard   July 18, 2008
World Press Photo is an important annual of record but this year's (2008) edition does not live up to the established standards. Only some of the photographs earn their place, but the chief problem is one of design which shows off the designer's craft at the expense of the photographers. Many of the images are reproduced on too large a scale and, being printed over two pages, cannot be properly viewed across the binding. This was already a defect in the 07 edition but this year the results are even more damaging.
