The judging panel, who presented Moore with the award at a ceremony in London, commended the photographer on his work:
“It is his spirit in the face of such horror that garners praise. His images are intimate and respectful, moving us with their bravery and journalistic integrity.
“It is a fine and difficult line between images that exploit such a situation, and those that convey the same with heart, compassion and understanding, which this photographer has achieved with unerring skill.
“Combine this with an eye for powerful composition and cogent visual narrative, and good documentary photography becomes great.”
