DESCRIBING A PICTURE

In this photo you can see a soldier lies dead in a pool of oil next to a leaking oil facility in the town of Heglig, after a clash with the Sudan People’s Liberation Army (SPLA).

It seems that man was gold plated because the oil is black and creates a good contrast. In the middle there is the person dead and the background, I'm not sure but I think they are cans or shoes, I don't know.

The first impression I had of photo were the clouds reflected in oil. It's amazing that a picture of a dead man can describe many adjectives together: dramatic, unusual, striking, moving...

The photographer name is Dominic Nahr, and this picture is one of the winners of the World Press Photo 2013

ITALY

BEST PHOTO:
I really like all the potos I took, but the best one is the photo os Pisa Tower at night with my best friend Christian. I went the first day.
My friend Marc took the photo with is mobile pone. In the foreground of the photo there is Chrstian who is holding me on his shoulders. In the background there is the Pisa Tower and it looks like we are pushing the tower. There are other people just in front of the Tower.
BEST ANECDOT:
There are a lot of anecdotes, but the best was, when we came back from the Pisa Tower. One group of Andalucian girls, were waiting to cross the tramline. One of them crossed but the other two waited. First girl shouted, come on, come on said.
I said: they aren't as crazy as you. T
he girl said: Shout up, imbecile and we laughed at her.
All of them had an Andalusian accent.
