Images from Iraq and Lebanon loom large in the various "best photographs of 2006" collections, which have been appearing over the new year on many news sites.
Zinedine Zidane's headbutt in the World Cup final is also a popular photograph, and is included in the BBC's collection of 12 images.
Time magazine arguably has one of the most prestigious annual collections. This year, it opens with a Muslim woman in a veil watching as a car is blown up by a remote control bomb in central Baghdad.
It also has a great photograph of a woman sitting at home as the Tour de France whizzes past her window. Time also has a magical black and white shot of a bar in New Orleans during the first Mardi Gras since Hurricane Katrina.
