July 01 2008. Rebajas / Sales





Subject: "Sales". Constraints: Not allowed to make pictures inside the shops. Solution: Working on the street. Visual items: People (AMAP: As Many As Possible); Bags; Sales signs.

Working as a press photographer for a medium size newspaper like
Diario de Navarra there're certain news that should be covered on a regular basis. One of them are the opening of the summer sales the first of july.
The final selection of the pictures intented for the print (the physical paper) is not done by the photographer himself but is a task put on other's hands. On this particular paper, not having a picture editor, the quite important thing of editing (here: choosing the right picture) it's been put among the journalists who're writing the pieces of news. This way, some unexpected things happen.
This picture was not chosen on the final edition.

Trabajando para un periódico regional (Diario de Navarra) como fotógrafo hay una serie de temas recurrentes; el primero de julio, la apertura oficial de la rebajas. La selección final de las fotografías, las que van a ir a edición impresa, no la realiza el propio autor sino que es un trabajo puesto en manos de los periodistas que escriben las noticias.
