Press Photographer of the Year 2008

As you already know, the winner of PPY 2008 was Daniel Berehulak, but today - at the private view - I managed to pap him! That's Daniel (below) bottom left, with his winning image projected above him.

OK, maybe you can tell that I don't do papping in my day-to-day work, praise be Thor, but it was a wonderful night of great images on display in the National Theatre. Here's Daniel accepting the prize.

Not so wonderful was the boasting of one of the young winners (whom shall remain anonymous), but he claimed to be a wonderful speech-giver, let alone a GREAT photographer, and possibly flirtatious with anyone happening to be female. OK, he might have been drunk.
On a lighter note, there was massive trouble with the wireless microphone during the announcements, and this one (below) kind of captured the happy and relaxed mood of the evening, when the mic cut out for umpteenth time.

There was also lots of free booze, so I must go to bed now. Some of us must work tomorrow.
