World award for British photographer

This picture by British photographer Tim Hetherington has been selected by the World Press Photo jury as photo the picture of 2007. The shot, published by Vanity Fair, shows an exhausted US soldier resting in a bunker in Afghanistan. "This image shows the exhaustion of a man - and the exhaustion of a nation," says jury chairman Gary Knight. Hetherington receives a prize of €10,000 (£7,500) plus a new camera.
