Front page? any link please?

Very sorry, I meant the page the Mail Online used used. In my eagerness to post after seeing it come up on Stumble Upon I assumed it was the front page.

Cracking image too!

Agree on the image - excellent capture and just perfect as a 'light relief' shot in a paper - but that caption is worthy of a shooting. Truly awful sub-editing....

Well done on national publication

Great shots - hope you have permission from ZSL to use for commercial purposes as they are definitely marketable shots.

 

[buckas]

congrats matey, fantastic shot!

did a feature last year with caters & DailyMail/DailyTelegraph - agency 50% cut is pretty severe!

I find it funny that anyone would think up the caption, even funnier that someone would run it!

Yep, it's like something from The Sun, circa 1986... not befitting such a great image. My boss would shame me in front of every single person at work if I started on such a tenuous link as "In cod we trust..."

I once got roasted when I was a junior sub on local newspaper in Donny for writing a caption relating to a copper (coin) collection by local scouts as "2p or not 2p...". Felt truly humiliated after the umpteenth person had popped their head into the office to laugh

Anyway, I digress......
