The concept behind this is easy enough to understand but I'm going to single our those photographs which I think best qualify for their photographic excellence. The one I have featured is my first choice because of the clarity and symmetry which hits you in the face, with just a small caption it says it all.
But there are others here which are noteworthy.
These are 1. for its barren locale, the Bedouin dress and the extended microphone indicating the presence of the press. It engages the rule of thirds and this features as well to some extent in the background setting of isolation

5. Even the barriers cannot remove the lenses
6. History is made
8. indicates just how important Sumo wrestling is in its part of the world, and doesn't he have a lovely face.
9. The Mac attack, how important the media is to business
