program is jodi. modern technology works wonders anyone can fly everyone's a photographer every day millions of cameras take billions of pictures every part of the world but only a few even journalists i have good enough to fly to the right place at the right side and make the snap that will makes a difference taking such shots out of thousands is exactly what the world press photo is all about but what's it like to be called the best on the planet and what does it take to their spotlight we need their reigning well best photo point jodi to be for. the photo of an afghan girl disfigured by taliban extremists a similar time is the shocking and inspiring shocking because one cannot get such atrocious injuries calmly and inspiring because the guys on the girls will to leave

even after suffering brutality johnny bieber's not new to the w.p.a. competition she wanted eight times already. the jury describes the future of bibi aisha as one of those few. immediately revised as a triumph and full of joy as. thank you very much for coming thanks for having me it's a pleasure for me to share well first of all i read that when somebody told you the e.u. won the world press photo which you report you say you're joking believe it is. true why couldn't you look you're not going to win well you know as you see it in your all previously that i've won eight will place awards before never in a million years would i ever have thought i would have won the overall prize and at

the same time because of all the controversy that was surrounding the photograph i thought that the jury would be they would it would be too much of a risk to give it the first prize will be used as you mention big controversy as far as i remember this picture this very picture appeared on the front page of time magazine and the headline read what happens if we leave afghanistan that's right so actually your picture was used in a propaganda campaign to sell the occupation. you see this is what's very interesting and south african coming from johannesburg if you showed it cover to people in south africa they didn't even notice the headline because that's not our politics they saw i share and the controversy came from very many different places and therefore everyone responded in very different ways

depending on the politics depending on the country they came from depending on a whole lot of different variables so it's in the fake me in that way in actual fact it was a catalyst that spread through the blogosphere world it was on t.v. it was everywhere and actually it was furthering and speaking about violence against women and more and more people were seeing this before we start of the story and the pinch yourself a couple of more words about the competition first of all what was your favorite picture among others among your competitors can you name some something else. like that. one photograph i think it's in bangladesh of look circus so a photograph from the cinema that's a far then he sun walking through the water and i like that but i also thought it was very interesting for me more than then appreciating the photography you so much

was it was interesting to see the chilean the chilean miners photographed and the ground sound there were really so it speaks a lot about citizen journalism. speaking about citizen jews speaking about awarding prizes well it's the first time when i ask this question to myself when i see the winners a work of the works winning world press photo is the prize awarded to the picture to the photographic work word to journalism to the story behind the picture and i have been a jury member a few years back and really firstly it's a photographic competition is the quality of the picture the composition but what they think it's the initial thing it's totally around the photograph and then of course the journalistic value after the fact is as important but really it's

a photographic competition well let's take a closer look at this year's winners of the world press photo contest spotlights in a dimmy there were reports from him that the bishop in moscow. both were expendable cleaners heroes and villains the poles and the nerve of two thousand and ten is here on these pictures when put together the works which won the world press for the contest here the view was mind like a tsunami of human emotions the first to feel the force of the tsunami were the contras jury they had to delve through a wreckage of more than a hundred thousand do you think should we choose two hundred images. each best for last year's events fifty six photographers from twenty three countries won one of the industry's most prestigious prizes in an age where everyone carries a camera and can get a lucky shot a professional still have an age cheika people who have dedicated their lives to

photojournalism and have a great experience but that's a completely different vision the quota features they take is so much higher citizen journalism will never replace professional journalism but the tooth can co-exist perfectly well. the world press photo contest is rated to celebrate the coexistence a special mention went to nonprofessionals such as the chilean miners who fought a graph themselves trapped for sixty nine days on the ground view was of the moscow exhibition and welcomed by portrait of julian our son which to result to be one of them and mark images for two thousand and ten. but listen it doesn't matter what we think of julian assange it's just that we call it is did not exist before and it does now and it has given a new perspective to reality and one morsels of getting information now right here throughout its fifty four year history the world press photo contest was mostly

about revolutions violent uprisings and deadly in the true disasters but there are always images ones i can restore porn next to the brutal pictures which make most of the daily news images of beauty and tranquility of nature look exceptionally fridge. so you don't consider yourself to be a journalist or a campaign or whatever you are you just a photographer for me i feel i'm a photographer. can move between the documentary world and the magazine world. i feel that you know my work isn't totally journalistic in a way after i also bring something of myself into the world when i work with photographers here in television are i always try to tell them you're not just picture taken your journal your reporters do you do your journalistic work i do it

with a pen and you do it with a camera so with you is different so for me when i lay it out i share i wasn't thinking how to satisfy a time magazine i was totally thinking of the creative process and working with i should. to create their photograph but i wasn't thinking how am i going to tell a kid when you took that picture you thought it will make a beautiful picture or you wanted to to try to get to express yourself in your position your your attitude towards well i think you know i think this photograph has a number it says a number of different things and you know as a journalist there when you're in the process of creating and not thinking that but out saw that i sure was a very beautiful woman and i'm all set the stage where i'm trying to break stereotypes in my work so i could have photographed in a more vulnerable position i could have lost because she doesn't have ears either

i'm going to ask could she moved her hair away and i didn't do that and i wanted to show her in a position of power and not in a position of of being vulnerable this is who killed you're about asia how did you get to tell a soul bit more about about how you got into the story well i went to see time magazine in new york and they gave me an assignment aaron baker who's the writer for time magazine she was doing a story on about eighteen different woman so she actually found ok you got the names the gionta and woman for afghan women shelter was looking after the time and that's how to really through aaron baker so you already knew the story that i knew the stillness little bit about the story it's horrible i mean i mean i mean when i believes it's just unbelievable well actually comes from the southern

provinces of afghanistan and. it's i think it was twelve or fourteen narconon into the detail she was given away to cover a dispute that happened with the family and she was really abused quite badly with in her in-laws home and so she decided to run away and. she ran to her neighbors thinking she would seek refuge but they handed her into the police and in afghanistan basically if you are a woman and you run away from your husband you go to jail which she received amnesty and her father came to collect turned to create better so ought to be raised has been due to that has to go in there and there was a court which happened to be in that area it was a taliban court. and they say that as punishment to teach other women in the village not to run away from their husbands to cut off a nose and ears and they held it down decision it was the tribal accords it would

disappear out was the village moment decision. to cut off her nose in and they lifted to die and then the military the u.s. military found the. world looked after her and intercountry women for afghan women. who are still looking after her in new york now. and they're going to go and she she came to america when he or she were you could only in was what will you told us about how you were taking this picture was it difficult to convince this your leader to pose for him for a magazine you know you see i think everyone tries to may i sure and their organization a victim to this and i sure was actually waiting to get a visa to go to america i wasn't the first photographer if it's a photograph or all journalist to write about her and i think that i don't know for

sure but i think women for afghan women and i should made the decision there and more publicity they got around her and what happened to perhaps the media would help to keep her safe it was her own decision to do to make it public to me that to me to face public and killed simply to make a statement actually you can't force anyone into doing something this is in a sheltered very structured structured and protected place. sa couldn't just walk in and say ah peas or not can i photograph you it's definitely doesn't work that way with the session it wasn't just a couple of structure it's not moral i took about three hours i could be a professional photograph of social reality with a model. i would like so there's no nine years as a child hard very basic how you stand. and then reflect sort of

like i like the studio's not not that's in the in the in the shelter in a very basic room with in the shelter. jodi bieber the winner of a world class photo contest the spotlight would be back we'll consider this interview also it's a short break so stay with us they're going to. play . wealthy british style the silence of the time to cut cut cut cut cut cut. in market financed scandals find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines to cause a report on our. mission is free. education free.

the case so yummy up and yeah i think you know everyone wrote about this on your own made a statement i mean the taliban even made a statement to say they don't advocate something like this and now the father in law has been arrested thing is a court case that's opened and they're looking for a husband but. the husband on the run is for the because this is what they're saying do you think do you think the court will. will be able to to to to to make an unbiased decision. were to difficult for you to say because i mean you know i'm not an expert in additional systems how did the in the nation change change are you sure. you you talked to her you know her well this should become a new kind of a personal after all you have to hear chanst as run major post traumatic stress the

strain she still suffers totally she couldn't have an operation she's in your. she lives in queens woman for afghan woman look after her but she was meant to have the operation and the surgeon said they didn't want to operate on her because she's still emotionally not really for it but we do have new pictures where wolf actually this picture way will be isn't that after the surgery this is a press they take now. with when she goes are anxious she swears in her so so so so so this is also this is something you see you can hear you can see there so and she has to have an operation to to make it real i mean to make it very clear now i see when she said so she just witnessed knowing who did it just lubell you know i think they're just waiting for her to sack a logically recover to get stronger before they can operate. it was

a terrible decision to go to the united states or a greater distance and there were people just you had to take her out of the pleasure when i need to she was really anxious to go to america but really the main reason why she wants a new nose and ears i mean can you imagine what it must feel like. what awaits in the united states she she she's just learning the language and you know what was she going to do what the moment she's making jewelry and all i know today because i'm in very close communication with the organization is that she makes jewelry she's got a very small. right now she sees them in mom once a week. she knows how to use the internet she she surfs afghan sites. and that's really what she does for now but i'm sure with english and when she gets emotionally stronger you know when things could open up for her. i know

that you you don't she knew she should have the so-called be jewelry year and she would sold a couple of things i know some bracelets and necklaces do you think she could make a living well i don't know she grown it but i think like five you know i think their opportunity for her in afghanistan they wasn't she was either going to stay at the shelter or should there's no way she could ever go home. do you think that she may be able to return home just not to her village garden. but i mean if she the painting what she does i mean perhaps she can go back to kabul and work there. so do you think she will want to go back on their own they're still fickle to say i mean i really don't know you know no one has access to i share i have very close access to the the organization that looks after

her but i don't get on the phone and have a conversation with you know they're still trying to protect him from the media you so that the media oceanfront the foundation oh no i did that will ensure that you know they say that but us really try wherever i go see advocates and ask people to donate funds to the b.b. i should say what is it for doing already you know it's very expensive living in new york and it's not that she's going to go shopping with their money in small you know she needs to be educated she needs caregivers and it's a very expensive process so they're found one hundred percent of the money put into their fund will go to bibi i share and really it will go to good living in new york . what i have done is i've created a limited edition of prints of b.b. i share that i'm hoping museums or that it's very limited will collect and all those funds will go to the p.p.i.

shelf. selling so we make the science but you know. how common in general if you know if you can give an answer to that when are such things that happened it happened. fleischer i mean i mean is it is it considered like normal in the radical islamists like villages and communities only to to do such things to you but i like to think of this more. domestic violence more than looking at it from the perspective of islam i don't connect the i don't connect the what you call to exceptional things like that happen i would say things that that happened but i don't know how often to their extremity that you do for example when i was in kabul i went to the self immolation hospital where because women are suffering so much within their homes he has been

zones they try and turn themselves they poured petrol on themselves and their track and it's sad in that way so there's definitely violence against women. we started talking about this story you said you saw it all started when time magazine told you to go to kabul and take eighteen eighteen years of age eighteen people sort so so you did all of them only eighteen you met although we did eighty stories eighteen portraits one of the success stories were happy happy endings happy stories among mentally a photograph that oprah winfrey of afghanistan i photographed a woman who is a politician and wants to become the first sports minister. a documentary filmmaker . since you so are photographed a variety of different want you know not all in a vulnerable situation so there are a lot of happy women in against well they are women i think they're come from more

educated backgrounds they're you know are having a very different life now i have mainly in kabul via google but in the villages that still now are the roads where i believe all my gracious free to do whatever your parents or your husband tells you to do well i would imagine it's the military there but i'm not saying that every household sure israelis file you mentioned like twelve or fourteen she was we when she was given you know i. want to be a fusion has been so this is this is the age where when the girls are usually you know less and less to settle. criminal this isn't even and usually they go. they get where they were fifteen sixteen pick up a good old a year older kid not listen to. your previous sort of pictures before you did they have against series was about the slums in south africa is that it's about serif

younger so way to you that how do you consider yourself regular social photographers social can be in henri also was just in the same in which you know so return really came about the project on the township i don't call it a slum because i don't see it as a slum. but this is what they call it. initially but it was a personal project and it became a book and it's really about you know i think that sometimes the media lamp certain countries in certain ways and before the soccer world cup in twenty ten a lot of bad media was leaving south africa and at or israeli about crime it was around it was around poverty and no. and was just showing the normality that also exists within our country and so waiter in a way was to break down the stereotype to show just the normality that can happen

in south africa as i'm sure sometimes russia is showing in a certain wasn't true so so so there is a social good to what you do. you know just just another photographer went with the globe although i mean this was really about upgrading to a theory. and it was to try and break down their fear that people have about the and. well you would you know now. i have in i think six countries in one man only yeah for mainly for world press that's just before i was in moscow i was in london photographing a portrait series in an area in east london called shorty. and it deals a lot in fantasy and well eastenders is something hard so whether or not i don't know really not today i know it's james a five that's very trendy. and you're you're

exhibiting here in moscow i think i think it's doomed to be a success because because because the world is pretty popular in this country. really thank you thank you very much for being with us and just that just a reminder that my guest on the show today was judy beavers here with the world press photo that's it for now from all of us if you want to have yourself spotlight grab someone in mind she was being pressured into the next one just drop me a line that i'll bring the ad party t.v. are you from the t.v. show interactive we'll be back with some comments on what's going on in and outside russia and so then they are our team and you take your cue.
