Photos of the week. Bombs Away - By Peter Bouckaert. Untitled. 10 juin 2011 Video aérienne superbe. Venice Fly Through. Une tempête solaire pourrait brouiller les télécommunications. La tempête géomagnétique pourrait provoquer des perturbations dans les réseaux électriques et les satellites GPS notamment, et obliger les avions de ligne à modifier leur itinéraire au-dessus des régions polaires, selon un porte-parole.
Best Pictures: World Photography Awards 2011. Photograph courtesy Amit Madheshiya, Sony World Photography Awards An open-air movie enthralls remote villagers in India's Maharashtra state in this year's winning picture from the "Arts and Culture" category of the World Photography Awards Professional Competition, which were announced in London late last month.
According to Indian photographer Amit Madheshiya, travelling cinemas visit villages far from movie theaters once a year, screening an eclectic mix of films for the equivalent of about 40 U.S. cents a ticket. Administered by the World Photography Organisation and sponsored by Sony, the awards are chosen by a panel of 12 judges, which this year was led by British photography critic Francis Hodges and included National Geographic magazine senior photography editor Kathy Moran.
