There's more detail from the NPAA here (http://www.nppa.org/news_and_events/news/2007/04/pulitzers.html)

"The 2007 Pulitzer Prizes for photography were awarded today to Oded Balilty of the Associated Press for Breaking News Photography for "his powerful photograph of a lone Jewish woman defying Israeli security forces," and to Renee C. Byer of The Sacramento Bee for Feature Photography for "A Mother's Journey," an essay the judges called an "intimate portrayal of a single mother and her young son as he loses his battle with cancer."

In addition, photojournalist Rick Loomis of the Los Angeles Times was a member of the team who won the Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting for their five-part series "Altered Oceans," which last summer examined the conditions of the world's oceans."

I viewed 'A Mother's Journey' last night and wept afterwards. Almost unbearable.

Simply stunning. Probably the most moving set of pictures I've ever seen.

Absolutely amazing: I found it was too hard to look at them all.
