2009, The Year and Decade in Pictures

Written by Jon   
18 Dec 2009

It is the tradition in December for photo agencies and news publications to publish their selection of the best pictures of the Year. This year many are looking back on the first ten years of the millenium. Has it really been, as one prominent news magazine wrote, "the worst decade ever"?


See for yourself by looking at the slideshows linked below. If you find other edits of the year or decade in pictures that you would like to share please let us know in the comments below. We hope you enjoy this fascinating and revealing look back by the world's leading image providers and story makers. We feel it confirms photography's enduring power to record, relate and act as a valuable document now and for generations to come.

Thank you for your support and readership in 2009,
we wish you health and happiness for 2010.
