That job was the bloody bane of my existence out there - photos of Ruperts and Rodneys for Country-Life magazine - don't they know there's a War On...? :lol:

And they used the rubbish-photo:

Small version:

I preferred this one:

Top stuff matey although I have to agree, the second image is my preference. I rember seeing whilst trawling through your Flickr site a while ago.

Always in awe of the stuff you produce and the conditions you produce them in.

That is all.

:-)
 
I think them chose the correct image. Although both are great the second could of been taken anywhere whereas the other shows the distinct architecture and deep blue sky indicative of the desert regions..
 
Well done that man on the publication !!!

And well done that woman on fighting for her country!

And (in my opinion anyway) well done to the mail / country life for picking the correct image to use - I agree with the above comment - the blue sky and buildings make it clear she's out there and not just a pic that could've been taken anywhere!

Either way, well done to you for capturing both images!

I would agree, I like number 2 best but Matt does have a point about number 1.
 
ah so it is common for the press to use the rubbish photo or mess up a decent photo so it fits their fixed pic size gap in the page............:lol:

I prefer the 2nd one as well, though not really 100% sure as to why - i think maybe the shallower DOF makes her stand out more? What do I know though???

Guaranteed that CL would go with any image with nice blue sky in it...........

Is it me or is she suffering from giraffe neck?

Click to expand...

I likened her to a swan, but 'giraffe' would do, I guess...lol
 
Nice work as usual mate. I have to say, first image does nothing for me, although I can understand why people suggest it's the shot they picked. The second shot is spot on, really like that.

Not sure which I prefer... but I think I'm edging towards the first... solely down to the background.

But congratulations on the publication!

However I agree with Marcel. :p
