BBC News in Pictures site

[Tony Hawkins]

Hi All,

The BBC led with my picture of a sunset over corn fields for their theme of summer. It's a cropped version of a picture I have on FLICKR. He's the link for those that might want to take a look.

Cheers Andy - I think I should have cropped it like that in the first place.

The BBC pay for nothing. They asked me to 'donate' all my Glasgow School of Art fire pics to their up and coming documentary on it. I asked them if they work for free too? No reply.

It's a great image there.

Thanks. You are 100% right about the fee. I've wanted to get an image on that particular site for a while - this is the only one they have used. I'm just happy to take it as an indicator that (perhaps) the shots I've been taking may be improving a little.

Cheers Paul - I just wanted to see if I could get an image on that site.

Well done Tony and I'd be happy to give away my first image, nice boost to the ego.

Did they inform you they have used it or did you find out for yourself?

No notification Alan. I only remembered to check today.
