Award for Photojournalism at the White House
This award recognizes a video or photojournalist
for covering the presidency at the White House or in the field.
And this year's award goes to Andrew Harnick of Getty Images.
He captured the moment an Oval Office visitor collapsed during an event.
And from the judges, they say this,
through sharp timing,
layered composition, and visual irony,
this photograph expertly documents a true split screen moment in real time.
The president's orientation and posture inadvertently echo the statue to his right,
while the other half of the frame is defined by movement,
a truly striking image of contrast.
