Tragic New Year's Eve Fire in Switzerland Claims Lives

From schoolies to floods, Guardian Australia was there to photograph every moment. Photographer and picture editor Carly Earl hand-picked three photographs – by Ellen Smith, Dean Sewell and Tajette O’Halloran – as her favourites of the year. From capturing the vibrant activity of schoolies week, to documenting the heartbreak of floods in New South Wales, Carly explains the craft and composition behind these unique photos. #photography #photojournalism Presented by Carly Earl Produced by Sanjana
