fotoDogue Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 5 hours ago, Michael_Jacobs said: My pictures depict what is happening on the holiest day of the year, for Jews, in Tel Aviv. Isn't that news? What, if I add "weather" In the description, it will become news? I see you have the C word as well as the G word in some on your headlines. That's not likely to earn you any Brownie Points with the Live News Team. Other than that, given your description, I would expect to see Jews in yarmulkes or more traditional orthodox attire observing their religion on a hot day, but that's not really what your photos show. http://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-tel-aviv-yafo-israel-30th-september-2017-yom-kippur-rehov-dizengoff-162612799.html?pv=1&stamp=2&imageid=04AB195E-B1CF-4AFD-9DC0-64F70E67D56C&p=180847&n=0&orientation=0&pn=1&searchtype=12&IsFromSearch=1&srch=foo%3dbar%26st%3d12%26pn%3d1%26ps%3d100%26sortby%3d3%26resultview%3dsortbyRelevant%26npgs%3d0%26qt%3dKCT8F1%26qt_raw%3dKCT8F1%26lic%3d3%26mr%3d0%26pr%3d0%26ot%3d0%26creative%3d%26ag%3d0%26hc%3d0%26pc%3d%26blackwhite%3d%26cutout%3d%26tbar%3d0%26et%3d0x000000000000000000000%26vp%3d0%26loc%3d0%26imgt%3d0%26dtfr%3d%26dtto%3d%26size%3d0xFF%26archive%3d1%26groupid%3d%26pseudoid%3d%26a%3d%26cdid%3d%26cdsrt%3d%26name%3dMichael%20Jacobs%26qn%3d%26apalib%3d0%26apalic%3d%26lightbox%3d%26gname%3d%26gtype%3d%26xstx%3d0%26simid%3d%26saveQry%3d%26editorial%3d1%26nu%3d%26t%3d%26edoptin%3d%26customgeoip%3dUS%26cap%3d1%26cid%3dQZ6LRWR2ALBGF2UJHVRWVHEL96KD7AKSFZJJLNK945KAPZ8VBY42W8RV9W8VUPE2%26vd%3d0%26lb%3d%26fi%3d2%26edrf%3d0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph Clemson Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 1 hour ago, Brasilnut said: True. In addition, I can also go back to this image anytime and clone out all the logos/trademarks and make it into a pure commercial generic airplane shot of an Airbus A320-200. Is it that easy? Isn't the orange livery likely to make is so recognisably Easyjet that it couldn't actually be used in commercial materials promoting some other product or organisation?

There are airlines which would give you an easier job - Lufthansa comes to mind. Just remove the titles and tail logo. Then there are all white chartered aircraft which are easier still (just remove the registration) but these are not so common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCat Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 The images show up if you are searching here. Sometimes you can spot the style but the image reference numbers start with an S. Search for "cat drinking from faucet" and one of mine shows up. I see it as the 4th image. It is square and quite stylized. Paulette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels Quist Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The five 'W's' and the 'H' are good to use in most news stories, and the 600 characters offer the possibility to be a little comprehensive and explain what is asked for by the posters above. Who? - What? - Where? - When? - Why? - How? (Different events require different elaboration of the items).
