As we approach the end of 2014, BBC Radio 4's The World at One is looking back at the biggest events of the year through the eyes of photographers.

Agence France-Presse photographer Joseph Eid took this picture in the old city of Homs shortly after Syrian government forces took control, ending a two-year siege of rebel troops and residents there.
