Long Shot..........Bath Chronicle

[Martin L]

This is a bit of a long shot but does anyone on here in the UK get the Bath Chronicle? Particularly the 4th May edition

I was searching online for any uses and some obscure website 'FreeLibrary' contained a text extract from the Bath Chronicle, 4th May with tantalizingly a line 'Pic: LecartPhotos / Alamy Stock Photo'  (my pseudonym) but as it was text, no actual image.

I just wanted to check if it was really used in the printed version.

The Readly app shows the print version. Nice snap!

Merci buckets

 

I tried getting a copy through my library app but couldn't get it.

 

Thanks for your help

Mr Standfast

Big favour to ask.

Is it possible you can grab a screenshot of where it was used in the paper?

This has got a little, shall we say interesting.

It may help other users to check out any images that have recently been licensed to newspapers.

When searching for the image on Alamy, I was surprised to see my image and another duplicate displayed.

One was captioned and attributed to me and the other had a more thorough caption started with 'Undated image handout" and the contributor was PAMedia.

Contributor relations are aware and seem to have sorted it out.

If I was cynical......ok I won't go there.

If I'm not being cynical, it was just some confusion on using the image but then it was inadvertently added back into Alamy as part of the PAMedia collection.

This may have happened to others so beware as it didn't look like I would receive the 'benefit' for its use, hence the screenshot would help.

If not don't worry.

 

Thanks

Martin

The Chronicle used to be a very decent local newspaper now it is just one of those corporate nonsense ones full of puff lifestyle pieces about trendy restaurants etc.

 

You may or may not have heard about the famous Bath historical figure of Beau Nash. 

 

"Beau Nash, born Richard Nash, was a celebrated dandy and leader of fashion in 18th-century Britain. He is best remembered as the Master of Ceremonies at the spa town of Bath"

 

The current iteration of the Chronic referred to this famous character as 'Bone Ash'.

Some of the best photogs working in Bath and Bristol came up through the Bath Chron.

One redeeming feature is the quality of images they choose

Received.

Thanks very much James.

If I'm ever back down in the South West, based on the likely license fee, I'll treat you to a night out, a beer, a coffee, a penny chew

Thanks again 

Martin

Are you sure that it is just the Chron and not distributed through all the other regionals owned by Reach?

It's in the hands of Contributor Relations so I'll see what they come up with

I generally find the current standard of journalism in titles from the regional chains and often turned out at central offices well away from the site of the 'news' abysmal.
