What about having a small chat with one of the top photographers from all over the world? Or listen to their stories about how they took particular photographs, what they felt? There is just one-a-year opportunity for this - the World Press Photo Awards Days.

This event takes place in Amsterdam, each year, around begin of May. There are two days of meetings, presentations, lectures and discussions about press photography. Winners of the last year World Press Photo coming up together and presents their work tothe audience. And in audience can be anyone, who register through the website: http://events.worldpressphoto.org/

The whole event is for free (except travel costs to Amsterdam). I was there last year, and there were two incredible days during which I have learnt a lot about press photography, and especially photographers' work, because it is usually not like it looks on the picture.

I've been many times at World Press Photo expositions, but never the one in Amsterdam. In the period before Amsterdam, you can see this pictures in every (bigger) city in the Netherlands. I usually life in the city of Zwolle, where they are exposed in an old church for around two weeks. It costs only 2 euros to see all the pictures, and it is totally worth it! There are always a lot of different 'subjects' - sports, war etc. - so really interesting.
You can also, for the people that want to visit it in Amsterdam, visit the Photography museum. http://www.foam.org/foam-amsterdam. It's in the old city centre, in a channel house. Really nice museum!
