Picture this: visualizing the MDGs

UNDP Picture this contest

UNDP, the UN's Development Program is organizing "Picture This", a photo contest, in partnership with Olympus Corporation, The Agence France-Presse (AFP) Foundation, and the UN’s Department of Information. "Picture This" wants to highlight the importance of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the work that is already being done to achieve them.

Any amateur or professional photographer can submit up to three pictures with captions until July 16 via Picture This website. Your pictures need to focus on one of the MDGs.

About 400 pictures have been submitted to date. Take your time to browse through them. Some are truly great, even though sometimes the caption and title does not say much.
Like the picture featured above, called "Alone/day after disaster" by Branimir. No caption, no further details.. But that does not take away the power of it. Delicate almost like a painting, romantic as a sunrise over a lake can be, but probably hiding an awful reality, as the title suggests...
