A handout image provided by the World Press Photo (WPP) organization on 18 February 2016 shows a picture by photographer David Guttenfelder that won Third Prize in the Long Term Projects Category of the 59th annual World Press Photo Contest, it was announced by the WPP Foundation in Amsterdam, The Netherlands on 18 February 2016. The picture is part of project entitled “North Korea: Life in the Cult of Kim”. The photographer documents urban and rural North Korea, capturing the daily life of its citizens, military events and ceremonies. North Korea has been one of the most isolated and least understood countries. Few outsiders have ever had a glimpse of the country and there have been very few independent photographs ever made there. The photographer negotiated unprecedented access and took more than 40 trips to North Korea. Images taken in North Korea between 25 February 2008 and 23 May 2015.
