Galleries: Black and White, Photojournalism

 HAd something else submitted then nipped out to shops (always carry the camera)

spotted this, 4 quick snaps the back home for a very quick B&W conversion, google search for news related story, nicked headline, cracked opena beer, job done...15 mins

It'll probably bomb, but it's real and a real news story so I'll be applying for my press pass now.

;-)

ok...it sucked

Good photo to accompany a story. Might prefer it taken from a slight angle and just a bit more light on the interior.

The shot definately fits the headline you've given, but the shot alone wouldn't be enough to draw me in to read the article. Perhaps adding a person to the shot to show how they're feeling about the theft would be more effective?

it's a bit bland, the interior doesn't stand out (could you have got away with tossing a brick on the back seat:-)

There is something very "artistic" about this image that I really enjoy, an interesting documentary type shot.

I almost can't tell this is a car, so we need to zoom out some.

I think that more of the car is needed top emphasize that this is a car window.
