At Leica, the belief has long been held that photographers have always played a leading role in documenting key moments in history. A single image has the power to bear witness to otherwise fleeting moments. Photographs document our history in a way no other medium can—and the person behind the lens doesn’t simply watch, they witness. These stories stay with us for generations. This is why Leica is committed to showcasing the talent of global photographers through their campaign “THE WORLD DESERVES WITNESSES“. Congratulations to those who made the shortlist!
