Competing with 2,000 photographers and 45,000 photos, photographer Paul Hansen of Sweden's No. 1 morning paper Dagens Nyheter won the Newspaper Photographer of the Year award from Pictures of the Year International.
"It feels great, it gives me a little respite – I'm so happy when people contact me and praise my photos. So this is a huge acknowledgement that Dagens Nyheter is in the same class as the New York Times and Getty Images," Hansen said in an interview in Dagens Nyheter.
