reportagebygettyimages: Bryan Denton, a freelance photographer for the New York Times, has been named this year’s recipient of the Chris Hondros Fund award, which comes with a $20,000 grant to support his documentary work. On receiving the award, Denton told TIME: It’s not just an accolade. It’s a motivational award too. Kiani Hayeri was awarded the prize for Emerging Photography. She is a former Getty Images Reportage Emerging Talent recipient whose work focuses on the impact of war on younger generations in her native Iran and beyond. The Chris Hondros Fund was created to honor Getty Images photojournalist and two-time Pulitzer finalist Chris Hondros, who was killed April 20, 2011, in a mortar attack in Misrata, Libya. CHF advances the work of photojournalists who espouse his legacy and vision, and sponsors fellowships and programs that bring shared human experiences into the public eye. -- source link
