Hi All,
Now let me see if I have this straight...
A phojo uses several photos to tell a story. His/her
work is usually used in magazines where photography plays a bigger part than
the story. (The story illustrates the photos.)
A stringer uses one photo to illustrate a story.
His/her work is used in newspapers where the whole story is told in words with
a photo for reference.
Both/neither/either uses/don't use flash except for when
they
are told to use/not use flash by the
client/editor/police/risk factor.
Both/neither/either charge/ are paid a fair price for the
work done and/or risks taken.
All use photo equipment according to their taste and
success.
All of them gripe that they are underpaid just like every
other business/job.
Just a question...
Yours,
glad to be anywhere;}
