World Press Phot 1999 winner is Danish
photographer, Claus Bjoern Larsen, who works with
Berlingske Tidende. See his Kosovo pictures at:

The Dutch Magazine 'The Journalist' writes:

He works with Leica (M?) with 24 and 50mm lenses,
bought from his colleague and friend Jan Grarup.
"These (short focus) lenses force you closer, in the
midst of the people. You can look them in the eye,
they can touch you as it were".

Recommended and compelling!
