Selection from 2007.
Great technique and a good eye on top of right place, right time give great results....

The best photos of 2007 MSNBC version (73 photos) | FreakyMartin.com (http://freakymartin.com/2008/01/17/the-best-photos-of-2007-msnbc-version-73-photos/)

Some good shots in there, like you say though a good eye at the right place at the right time

Right time, right place, right settings and a bit of nerve. Capturing the moment :thumb:

You've gotta admire it, but it's not my sort of stuff.

Brilliant stuff and not too many wailing women this year.

Wot no EXIF? How can we possibly tell how good they are without full technical details :lol1:

More seriously, some great and inspiring shots there :)

There's no EXIF data because they are all photoshopped :)

Some really good shots in there...wouldn't fancy dating that swimmer though :D

The small planes crashing is a spectacular capture but the three kids sliding would be my fave.

I'm a big fan of photojournalism and this one really stands out for me -- if any of the images could speak a thousand words it's this one:

I don't know if you guys are aware but an archive of Robert Capa's images/negatives were unearthed very recently according to the International Herald Tribune and there could be a lot of images in there which may dispel the thoery that the infamous shot of the soldier being shot is a fake. I don't have a link to the story as I read it in (good ole fashioned) print. Apparently these were discovered in Mexico. Could be a major find in the field of photojournalism.

For those interested, here's a link from the NY Times about the discovery: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/27/arts/design/27kenn.html?_r=1&pagewanted=1&oref=slogin

Fascinating Capa story on Frenchie's link above. Here's another showing the famous image:
