Best of the year photos

Reuters publishes hundreds of thousands of photographs each year. Although 2010 hasn't finished yet, they have already selected the 55 best pictures of 2010.

All in all, they have a great aesthetic value and are good reading practice.

Self-study activity:
Get together with an English-speaking friend and watch the slideshow. Discuss what you know or remember about the news item each picture shows before reading the caption, and your opinion about the different issues. There are 55 photos in total, so there is lots of stuff to choose from.
