Best Spot News Photo I've Seen

->> I recently wrote a post for the News Photographers Association of Canada about a spot news photo taken by a colleague of mine, Shaughn Butts. It was the scene of a murder and the photo that ran could of been the opening shot for any great Hollywood movie. This link will take you to my blog where he details his experience from the shot.

->> Hey Michael, I know what a shot. I can't believe that he had the patience to wait till he lined up the best shot. I think most photographers would of just started firing the minute they got there.

->> Thats the best spot new photo you've seen? Really?

Ok.

Doesn't do much for me though sorry.

For me, a great spot news photo tells the story...as you said...most people miss the story here....and even knowing its there....just doesnt tell the story to me.

Sorry...
