Earlier this week, eight AP staff and freelance photographers - Ivan Valencia, Eduardo Verdugo, Felix Marquez, Marco Ugarte, Fernando Llano, Eric Gay, Gregory Bull and Christian Chavez - were awarded this year’s Pulitzer for feature photography for images documenting the complex, richly emotional experiences of people journeying to a new life.
Here are a selection of the photos for which they won the coveted journalism award, one for each photographer.
